A RIPPER Day Sailing - Stays'l BLOWOUT [EP 113]

Last month we pulled into a marina for 3 days to complete an ongoing rigging project to replace all of our stays. While in the marina, we installed all but one - the forestay. It was finally time to install it and the best marina we could do it in was 25 miles north in Carriacou. So we set off for a day sail and immediately got a whooping from some pretty hefty seas and strong winds. In the process of raising our canvas, we tore our staysail - Our first ripped sail of our journey so far and not surprising given its age. Despite the wild weather and ripped sail we had a great journey and put a hook in in Tyrell Bay, Carriacou that afternoon. The next day we inspected the tear after assessing that it was a bit beyond our skills we got it straight to a sailmaker to repair. The next task was the take off our Genoa in preparation for our marina time.
