http://www.extremesailingseries.com In the sixth race of the day (Monday, 8th August) the Extreme 40 Aberdeen Asset Management cartwheeled spectacularly in gusty 20-25 knot conditions that was pushing the fleet to their limits. The British Extreme 40 team helmed by John Pink was charging downwind with reefed mainsail and gennaker, sandwiched between Italian team Niceforyou and Austria's Red Bull Extreme Sailing. The bows dug in as a big gust hit all three boats, and with no room to manoeuvre, the boat cart-wheeled, flipped the boat almost vertical, before capsizing.
