I was not on the boat when this happened. I am told it was crossing the
Vic-Maui finish line in the Molokai channel when she got hit by a big
gust and rounded up. The picture was taken as she came up. Apparently
the spreaders were in the water. She was actually knocked down three or
four times before they got the tack pennant on the kite (8000 sq ft)
cut. Lost one guy over the side but the committee boat picked him up.
The original of this photo is hanging in the Lahaina Yacht Club.
