What happened.... looked quite good until the end.....was that due to a harness line "malfunction"

Had to clean out the car found a disk in it.

found on that disk some of Pepe's camera work from last winter when he was down and out with a busted leg.

Be afraid peoples, Elmo's got video evidence[}:)][}:)][}:)]

Distance shot of some SRM riff raff with 25 stuck on his sail, depth checking during a gybe

Looked at that a few times but can't figure out what went wrong, wouldn't mind a copy of that Elmo.
Must have been a while ago, I'm using the Avalon Sail Company's rehacked 5.5.
