This report is quoted on theVelux 5 oceans site

"Rolled last night. Section of mast track bent. Can't remove all the screws so sail stuck. Heading Coruna but may take a day or two. Masthead instruments unserviceable but alarms keep going off. Sat C still bleeping. Otherwise OK. RKJ"

The seas look horrible.

Hope he remembered to start his engine as soon as he decided to go back... look at the race rules, the 48hrs starts from engine on, or accept a tow. /forums/images/graemlins/tongue.gif
