Video of dismasting - on purpose
 

I surely do love the Brits. This is 15 minutes and worth every second.

Intentional Dismasting Video So Good !
 

Hey Auspicious , this is a great video to share with us ,,,, I certainly appreciate your effort and those "Brits" that did that !

Brion has a ditty bag of broken SS fittings , but he doesn't have video of these failures .

I love Brion's advice , that of , at all times , "build in a reserve of neglect" when working on your rigging .

I just wonder how many dismastings have been prevented by Brion's educational efforts and sage advice ?

We are so very lucky to have sailors like you and him in our midist.
