The Owner! 

What kind of clown doesn't take their jib down for winter storage??

We always get a couple blasts of 50 - 60 Kts during the winter  -

Subject: Stus-List Spreader Bracket

 

Went to check up on my boat the other day and found that my lower port
spreader bracket had been pulled off the mast, but still attached to
spreader.  Seems a nearby sailboat owner had not removed the jib and it came
unfurled during a storm and caught hold of the spreader boot. I can only
imagine it violently shaking my spreader and rig. With the bracket partially
off I can see a hole in the mast.

- Is that some kind of access opening behind the bracket? Or is it worse
than that? I'm buried in the yard and the mast won't be down till spring.

-If the bracket or spreader is destroyed, does anyone know of a source for
replacements?

- Boat owner or Boatyard responsible?

Appreciate any info.
