A day originally scheduled for our club's race starts turned into a high wind adventure. With wind gusts of 30mph, a Y-Flyer skipper was the only club member to cross the starting line. Unknown to him, his front stay, a wire holding up the mast, came loose on the water. It is seen to vividly to us as he comes in. The mast stayed up until the jib, front sail, which held the mast in place was released. No one was injured and there were no damages to the boat.
