never mind - update on the situation. Through some heroic efforts on part of Jason (who was wondering when I'd next call him with some Mission Impossible last minute project before a long distance race) and his helpers and Kit
- elise's rig is down
- spreaders are in rigger's shop
- new set of spreader is available
- tomorrow new set of spreader (or fixed spreader) is scheduled to be mounted back on boat, rig will be back up, boat will be tuned up again
If rigger assesses that rod + wire have been bent, we won't make Wednesday start. If not, we are still on, provided the SSS race direction is fine with us making some small logistical modifications to 'sailing the boat to South Beach tonight', pretty challenging with no mast. They need to check that we did swap the lifelines this weekend.
