We have a very good start, was in the middel of fleet.

Now , we have lost the leeward backstay.

Flemming, was send to the top of the mast, to fix the problem.
Wind 11-14 m/s, boat speed : 9-11 knot

Flemming was in the mast in 5-6 min. Then the boat start to tick-tack.
There was noting todo - problem with the spinaker

Take down the Spinaker ! - No price for that.

We got the spinaker and Flemming down. And up again with the Spinnaker.
The backstay was now okay.
