The Q1.5 got tested then sailing with J3.

The Damage

The fibula (perone) bone took all the load and snapped, an operation is needed to get it back into place.  Braking a bone in a Moth foiling jibe beats tearing Achilles tendon stepping in a water filled pothole.  It's quite a "medical" year....

Fibula fracture

On Sunday 20 September Idefix VII went out for a test sail after having the stays repaired from previous dis-mast.   All went good until jibing from starboard to port close to FN2, Idefix VII pitch poled into a wave just as I was changing sides.  The picture above is from an other jibe some year back, it shows the position my right leg just before the crash.  I think I was not leaning on the knee but more sitting like a kangaroo before been thrown forward.  My weight on my right leg caused then the fibula to snap.
Coordinating jibes in waves is to me an open question that needs further study.

Beating to windward

Here is yesterday's track of IdeesfixVIII beating upwind then A2 run downwind back in winds of 340/12, 35C.

ADCA Race 01

Here is our course during ADCA Race 01, we beated up to U-3 in winds NW 12Kts, then spi run down to FN2 and finish.  Had trouble dropping the jib and exploded the A2, leading to second place after Mistress.  Great sailing conditions overall.
