  • learning process....

  • I read that Abu Dhabi's rigg is from a different maker, but I have no information whether the other boats' riggs are identical with any of both. Good luck anyway to PUMA and the other boats! Especially to Michi Muller from Germany!

  • Hey they are coming through Cape Town :D

  • i don't think rigging is flawed. i believe that these boats are extremely lightly engineered so that they can do things like break the 24 hour record. it's a balance between being unbreakable and performing

  • i'm really sad...

  • Looks like the boats, when launched of a wave, generates forces current masts seem to handle badly. Flat bottom, wide beam. Exciting race! Good luck Puma!

  • haha, how ironic, "breaking" news

  • Abu Dhabi's mast broke too. It makes you wonder if there is a flaw in the rigging design. i know im not one to judge considering all the genius collage grads who worked on the design, but there's a pattern now and other teams should be careful.

  • breaking news, get it?

    really sad though

  • A terrible set-back, but they will recover and come back. They are Americans after all!

  • Shit! Are they really going to sail anywhere with that? :O

  • Sad news

  • Too much broken boats this V.O.R. :(. They push the materials to the limit, but looks like they should improve construction.

  • damn!!!

  • Good to see the lads are in good spirits at the end

  • Sad sad sad, don't have any other words!

  • Nooooo!

  • So sad - glad all are ok.
