Anyone know what the two chainplates either side of the backstay are for? Would he use them for extra support for the mast during heavy weather maybe?

I do not understand why no other compettitors have done the same.
. . . The others have chosen to track along further north . . .
My cynical mind does make me wonder how much outside assistance some people get......
I do take my hat off to the competitors though, the amount of time and money they have put in is crazy.
Lots to learn for us displacement sailors.

.....so all of us who have ordinary boats hope to learn something from the competitors.
