No, what happened was that we had a broach under spinnaker and while
experts
advise against it, I eased the boom vang and 90% of the rig broke off and

That's too bad, if you were a BIG boat sailor you could have saved it.



Did you stay rafted up thru the night?

Yep. Slept like a baby, although it still wakes me up when the boat swings
to a wind or tide shift.

I was invited to a raft up, but declined. I'm a little leary of rafting to
other sailboats, thinking about a power boat wake rocking us.

Not a problem if you do it right. Of course, out of any three average boats,
there are two or more sailors who think they know how to do it right, but will
damage the boat(s) and/or foul the anchor. However, when my wife is part of the
group, everybody does it her way.... and she has learned from the best

Snoring on other boats, now *that's* a problem.

When I was on the big submersible boats we shared an anchorage with another boat
who just had to run their f--in' active sonar all night. That was annoying.
