Sir Bani Yas Race - broken propeller blade

 Mark Brierley at the top of the mast..



We had prepared everything for the Sir Bani Yas Race on 18 April 2015, we had even fitted the VHF mast antenna and lights however the Wednesday before a propeller blade broke off leading to the cancellation of the whole operation.  We had loaded 120 liters of water, 100 liters of diesel fuel and the food had been purchased.  We know now how to prepare for a 3 day offshore race.
