I've been sailing my AI for almost five years now. The sail has started to fall down the mast. When you boat fails it's never a good day but this fail happened a few miles into the open Gulf. I am glad to have had the pedal drive but it was a long journey back through the jetty under human power. I assume something has worn out but I can't see anything out of the ordinary. Any thoughts on a fix?

Thanks,
