McGyver sailing

One topic at the seminars was about fixing stuff that goes wrong. For example, how someone may use a banding tool to reconnect the boom to the mast, how to rig an emergency rudder, etc...Anyway, that was kind of cool. Nathan is an engineer so that's his second nature. It is interesting to note though that this is the kind of things that you want to feel comfortable doing as your safety, performance may be at stake if you don't. So don't hesitate to get your hands dirty!
