Theonly option was to sail the boat back at full speed vergingon out of control with some very big waves!” recalls Chris.“I have also been on board a few race boats which havebroken mast while racing - that can be pretty dangerous.”Chris has been in San Francisco since May <strong>this</strong> year.
