    "Alinghi 5 update: small breakage stops play for a day…" Sounds better than a mastbreak!

    Well, this is Alinghi speak for a midsize to major disaster. After all, the boat is expected to be out of the water for three to four days.

    Come on, another boat, i do not remember anymore which boat it was, lost its Mast. As far as i see alinghi still has a Mast and 2 Hulls without any visible breakage. May be they broke their third hull. But this one they do not need anyway, as BOR does not need its old Mast anymore.
