Disaster, broken rigging 200 miles from land. Learning By Doing Ep 58

Two days into my first overseas trip disaster strikes! I discover the bobstay mount on the hull has failed and have to figure out a way to fix it. With whatever I could find on the boat I manage to make a passable repair and sail under mainsail only back to Australia. Before I leave though I spend some time discovering the magical island of Herald Cay.
