Ok, that made me laugh.

Me too. Though if Ginger and Mary Ann are on board with them it may take them weeks to get back to Hawaii

Just got back to the dock.
Had a nice conversation with the coast guard. One of our wives got worried and called them yesterday morning.
I’m beat. Will update the thread tomorrow.

Carnage:

There was a flat piece under the I-beam that these attached to. It cracked apart as well. The mast sits on the I-beam. It was added at some point after the boat was built. It looked like there was some delamination, probably why they added the I-beam.

Looks like that crack has been there for a long time
