because I have either torn cartalige, or a hairline fracture in my wrist at the moment and it hurts like hell when putting any turning / torquing force on my wrist, like working a winch or pulling lines. I should find out next week exactly what's wrong, either way she's going to have to work most of the lines for the next month or three.
