She probably wasn’t told until it was too late to go on air. It was a story that was broadcast just after it happened. RUclips is always delayed when they put it up. I wouldn’t be criticising baed on what time you are watching it on social media . I would have expected a Xmas theme attire really . I have no clue what that was meant to be lol
It would only take a slight misjudgement in the dark in a storm. Plus one of them actually got hit by the mainsail and was smashed into the winch. The crew didn’t actually say the boom but the sail itself so possibly it was partly entangled in the storm. Keep in mind they are focusing on racing too so it’s not like they are out for a pleasure cruise. The media said the boom on the first one. Both were experienced anyway but tragedies happen at sea. Nothing you can do to totally prevent it if they want to keep the race going. It has always been bad conditions in some areas yet the safety record stood for over 20 years. I guess we will find out once they do a full enquire anyway.
I am not sure if I am nit picking here but I would expect a more somber attire when presenting such news.

Anybody think of crash helmets
Why cant they wear helmets RIP Condolences to families and loved ones Amen
Do you race offshore?
It was a fair question...no need to be a dic k.
They can wear helmets if they want, there's no rule saying you can't, but seeing that these sailors are adults we let them choose what they want to do
So Sad😢
Killed or drowned ?
why is she in the pjs ?
This is freaky, was watching the 1998 tragedy weeks ago. I forgot that horror happened.
Yeah it is sad but they are doing what they love and know the dangers. Better than getting smacked by a bus driver that ran a red light.
It's sad that these sailors have passed but they know the dangers of this sport. They live and breath this kind of stuff.
He got knocked over by the boom? Experienced? Am I missing something here?
