Isn't that a Mystic ?

Not a great picture, and I sure better ones will surface, but it looks like the Port prop shaft snapped, and the Port prop went through and stuck into the rudder support?

We were there when Jeff pulled the boat back into the pits. The shaft broke and the prop impaled itself into the back of the boat. It was cool to see them run the boat hard all day.

Karma?

Correction... better photo shows the Port prop shaft, clean snap, and the port prop went almost straight up, into the tail end behind the port sponson.

I talked with some of the guys. Dan and Martin were right alongside, in the air over a really big hole, when it broke. (On landing maybe???)

They were there, and then they were gone.........


Jeff said he was really surprised. Never heard of one breaking like that before. Told him at least he kept the prop.....

F*cking Klingons are ruining the sport !

That and pedophile photographers from Naples

[Donskihp]

I know those Herings are quite pricey but I believe I'd rather be fishing for a prop than bringing it home there!

I'd be checking the starboard shaft for cracks.

My guess is by the rust on the broken one it was cracked before it arrived at the race site.
