@jaybird2284 All he did was slide along the stay, he wasn't injured, so he could easily still provide for his family and himself. i myself have had my fair share of sailing injuries, but luckily seeing as im still 16 i dont have to provide for myself. and luckily, i usually end up breaking the yacht club boats instead of mine.. :P

@jaybird2284 I am certain that Redbull will survive a month

[jaybird2284]

@kylecuthbertson the exact opposite of funny. imagine if someone told you you couldnt provide for yourself or your family for the next month. and people laugh out loud at your misfortune. just think of that scenario.
