Here we are rigging a reef line while underway. We had swapped the laminate main sail out for the Dacron main sail before leaving the dock, because it was quite windy and the Dacron sail is more robust. But we didn't rig the second reef line properly and had to pull it out in order to raise the sail. So here we are sailing under the first reef, while I climbed onto the boom to re-rig the second reef. I’m wearing a climbing harness attached to the spinnaker halyard for safety.

June 10th, 2024. sv Theros leaves Halifax bound for the Azores. Three days later, 34 miles southwest of Sable Island — the graveyard of the Atlantic — their AIS goes dark. The boat is never found. Four weeks later, the crew washes ashore on Sable Island in their inflatable dinghy. The TSB conclusion: consistent with a fire on board. Here's what I believe happened.
