No, Mike you are not missing anything. Thank you. And I am not contemplating a monohull. It is just that the recent GB55 dismasting triggered these mental exercises using the scenario's from all the different speculations put forward. This boat is top of the bill in build and design and some kind of norm to compare to. My hypothetical HP schooner vis does very well indeed. I just got stuck imagining the reefing line stuck at the end of the wishbone in 70 knots squalls. I guess leaving the sail be and feathered until these blow over is not a bad option compared to all others.
