i'm thinking… coming into summer in the Northern Hemisphere with lotsa new foilers and lotsa new crashes. :huh:

The damage does not look that bad at all, as far as the hulls go. The picture windows knocked out of the port side of the green room does look like large amounts of water could come aboard in very rough seas. Could that main salon be designed with drainage? That would seem prudent, but that might have been overlooked with over confidence in the design.

The pic with the CG chopper isn't very clear, but I don't make out any severe damage from a ship attempting a rescue.

 

[bulletpoint]

The nOOb thing.

+1 and Thank You.

Rainmaker was located. Partially submerged, coach roof missing. Roughly 300 ne of hatteras. I got to see photos on an iPhone today and if they get sent to me I will post

 

[RKoch]

Interesting.

 

[us7070]

maybe not the same photo.., but one was posted in the thread over in multihull anarchy a while back

 

[ropetrick]

Cool!

It won't sink until it gets run thru a shredder.

 

[RKoch]

Looks pretty disruptive.

 

[NoStrings]

If the coachroof can be so easily disrupted, shouldn't the hatches into the hulls be made pretty much bombproof to prevent all of that downflooding?

For a supposed offshore boat, you would think so. Not really necessary for a condomaran kept in sheltered water.

I thought I saw it Sat. morning, but it turned out to be just another half submerged shitbox

A waterspout? Act of God?

Is PJ laminating all day with no mask or did they confuse MEK with coffee in the company cafeteria

 

[ropetrick]

A tight weather window?

More of a sucker hole.

'The boat endured a direct hit by a freighter and survived'

'The saloon endured the full force of the rig falling on it'

There was a allot of enduring going on. Some please define 'endure'.

It's official. PJ is completely delusional.

"Waterspout, an act of God?"

Just like those pesky "act of God" midwestern tornados that are so fond of mobile homes, I reckon??
