This afternoon, a fishing boat came in to the marina basin with a big yacht mast complete with sail in tow.
What’s going on ?...where’s the boat ?
They took it over to the travel lift and started to lift it out. Bruce the rigger turns up and says it’s off a charter catamaran from Port Denerau.
Something in the rigging let go and the mast fell over the side of the boat !

Just shows, if the rig had been inspected anytime in the last year, that rusty crack would have been seen and the terminal replaced…cost $300 ??...now to repair the mast …cost $3000 ? or more !
Well it kept us all entertained for a few hours !
