Looks like a J105 got trashed.
Too bad.
Maybe Espo can fix it up.

After the collision it appears to be a spayed rudder.

Unfair.
It was green.
I left it to port coming home.
The channel was obstructed.

And there is another thread about the vulnerability of rudders in the water. The damn things are a hazard in or out.

You guys can continue to bash J/105 sailors all you want, but that's no J/105.

I'm sure someone will try to claim that happened! Frigging idiots who don't know how to hold their booze.

Do you have facial hair, drive a pick up truck and have a fat wife?

You need to understand that no one was injured.
Having said that, what exactly is a "victim"?
