idontwan2know 90 #1532 Posted January 17 1 minute ago, zillafreak said: Hull must have been compromised For sure. Buoyancy when they righted vs a few minutes later definitely indicates they're taking on water. I'm guessing something where the foil arm joins the hull. That foil was fully out of the water and slammed down flat. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have no idea how much work it needs to be able to race, but if it's significantly less than getting Patriot back on the water, and if they are allowed to switch boat (are they?), why not? Work on Patriot while sailing Defiant in the RR and Semi and try to stay in. This shows us how easily one of the other teams can crasch out as well, so worth to stay fighting if at all possible.
