    Det är väl själva grejen med HavskappSegling som sport, att det ska vara lite farligt med mycket dramatik….

    Jag kollade upp det litet i höstas. Om man vill vara med på hela varvet kostar det GBP 55 000, eller i runda slängar 600 tusen. Fast då ingår en rejäl utbildning innan start. Och ett sjöställ ;-)

    Något att fundera på när man vinner på Lotto.

    Kan dom inte lägga ut bojar som dom gör på Lidingö Runt så dom inte behöver gå på grund? Stora båtar verkar behöva detta :-)

    Kölen ser ut att sitta kvar.
    Måste vara mer än 5,2cm laminat på den båten…

    Med litt mindre triangelform på skroget hadde de sikkert kunnet unngå grunnstøting.

    De tänker inte heller försöka dra bort den.
    Men kölen sitter ju kvar i alla fall :-)

    The surveyors and salvage experts advise that the boat is now so weakened by the pounding she has taken on the reef, the collective view is that she would not survive being dragged off the shelf, made buoyant and then complete the 450 mile tow to Singapore.

    Even if this were possible, the extent of the damage means that she would be beyond economic repair. As such, Sir Robin said, “It is with very great sadness that we have to accept that Cork Clipper will remain on the reef, as we lose her to the sea. This is the first loss Clipper has experienced in seven races and since the first race in 1996, more than 2 million miles of racing has been safely and successfully completed.
