C;mon guys! Check that last photo! You would have to get the sail down to save the rig. Which one of you thinks you could do that in that sea?!
After the rig had that kind of impact would you then put it back together and risk the AC on it?
Surely the stupid choice these photos speak to is that they were sailing in 40 knots. It is not like the cup will be raced in anything like that.

And in the end.

50K.......they blow a couple of spinnies and that is gone in the monos. These boats cost nothing compared with the budgets they have had.

BTW anyone notice the second cat flipped out in the first photo?
