Sad news, even made the BBC. https://www.iomtoday.co.im/news/two-die-in-red-flag-incident-at-southern-100-625872
Yes, sad indeed. Details are sketchy at the minute but more will get announced in due course i would imagine. Terrible news though. I were due to Sail across on the night boat tonight to catch the last days racing but the whole event has now been cancelled.
The event has now been cancelled. Very sad news for all involved. https://southern100.com/statement-issued-from-the-southern-100/
I know marshalls are taught of the risks when they sign up but I bet none of them expect to die doing a voluntary service. Can only imagine how horrible an accident it must have been. Thoughts and condolences with all concerned x
Mixed etiquette on this forum around sad posts. My guess is the dislike is for the 2 deaths, not your post. Andy
