Tom Slingsby and his Australian crew have been hit with a devastating blow after a dramatic collision with a course mark during the first fleet race of the Championship Sunday forced the team to retire from racing altogether. The collision occurred as Australia and Canada were approaching the first mark of the race at speed. Australia driver Tom Slingsby made a split second decision to manoeuvre away to avoid a potentially catastrophic collision with the Canada Team's F50 and crew, instead hitting the course mark, causing extensive damage to the Flying Roo.

Dear Salty Sailor, While we love disconnecting from the world out at sea, having an internet connection can be quite useful. We've tried various options, including e-SIMs, local SIM cards, offshore satellite systems like Iridium GO, and Starlink. Each has its pros and cons, but our clear winner is Starlink. For a detailed review of Starlink, check out our website (link in bio). Stay Salty, Greta and Michael on Fortun
