Xu Xinhua photo According to Guo Chuan an DUI News: Guo Chuan integrated offshore marine technology expert from the United States maritime search-and-rescue team pictures, video and telephone conversations Guo Chuan on October 26, at 15 o'clock Beijing time for confirmation from 15:30 for emergency water. Team feels that there are two possible causes of the accident are present along with the ship fall related to the large triangular sail in the sea.
First is that Guo Chuan was in decline levels 13 to 20 knots of wind speed with the mainsail and lateen sail in the front. Weather conditions this is proper sail combination. Later in the evening, he decided to take up the spinnaker, and so will be able to sail at night more safe. He tried to sail against the wind, for single sailing sailor, this is a fairly expensive operation difficulty, especially in strong winds and high speed driving conditions. He needs to stand in the end the narrow bow, pulled the bow side accept large spinnaker. Having lost control of the rigging, and large triangular sails suddenly fall. When he tried to stop the big spinnaker overboard when he shaking of the ship, was thrown out of the ship.
Another it might be because of equipment failure. Guo Chuan was in downwind situations, is the reduced level of the mainsail and is also located in the main sail in front of the J1 sails (jib), which is the safest combination of sail in the evening. Spinnaker is up but still hanging on the mast (large triangular sails when not in use can be taken down into the top compartment). But large spinnaker up the rigging or J1 rigging snapped, spinnaker fell to the water. At this time, Guo Chuan first J1 sails, the boat slowed down, and then handling the spinnaker drowning. When he began dragging the spinnaker came on board, because the large triangular sail floating in the water is very heavy, at some point he must unlock the safety rope in the body in order to move around the ship. A high sea threw out the large spinnaker and Guo Chuan boat.
Guo Chuan drive "Qingdao" on the trimaran, but outside the 30-meter-high main sail, also includes large spinnaker and J1 four auxiliary sail, sail. Failure investigation a specific cause of the accident to rescue the judgment, must consist of professionals familiar with the three-ship boarding in order to further knowledge.
Based on current information, both of which may, Guo Chuan is likely cause of drowning is to prevent a large spinnaker overboard or save has fallen when the spinnaker, due to sudden waves or shaking of the ship being left out of the Ark.
Analysis of fleet bosun author Johannes Krause says Guo Chuan said, on a single sail sailor to manipulate such a super trimaran, both received large triangular sail, is a large triangular sail boat drowning, is very difficult to do. In the course of two possible courses of action, in a specific time period must untie the safety rope to complete all technical maneuver.
Rescuers found a life jacket on board, but Guo Chuan was about how life vest, it cannot be denied that Guo Chuan fell into the water wearing life jackets. Bank analysts believe that Guo Chuan while drowning "maximum possible" still wearing life jackets.
Guo Chuan apparently suffered a sudden and unexpected dangers. Before the sea conditions and personal situation is normal.
Beijing today 11:30, Guo Chuan Bank team received a United States Coast Guard in Honolulu call, a United States Navy amphibious assault ship from San Diego, California, Ma Jindao rescue Guo Chuan Hong Kong rescue workers have managed to get on the "China-Qingdao", but Guo Chuan was not found on the boat.
For two days, Honolulu Coast Guard sent Hercules HC-130 has been on the "China Qingdao" was sailing near six aerial scan of search and rescue, scan search and rescue region achieve Fangyuan 4600 square miles, but could not find Guo Chuan.
Beijing today 14:30, United States Coast Guard in Honolulu suspended airborne scanning searching for Guo Chuan, and publish the search report. Beijing time today (27th) 16:57, China maritime search and rescue Center officials are sympathetic to calls to Guo Chuan Bank team informed the suspended search and rescue situations.
International Maritime Search and rescue agencies today issued a circular to all vessels in the waters of the incident, demanded to all vessels sailing in the area while searching for Guo Chuan.

郭川已被确认落水 事故原因有两种可能|郭川_新闻资讯
郭川驾驶三体帆船在美国旧金山湾航行。新华社记者徐勇摄 新华社记者徐勇摄 据郭川岸队消息：郭川岸队航海技术专家综合从美国海事搜救队获得的图片、视频和电话交谈信息确认郭川于北京时间10月26日15时至15时30分之间因突发事故落水。团队认为事故原因有两种可能，均与目前随船漂落在海水中的大三角帆有关。
第一种情况是郭川当时在13到20节的风速中用缩降一级的主帆和位于最前方的大三角帆航行。当时天气情况下这是合理的帆面组合。傍晚过后，他决定收起大三角帆，这样晚上就能航行得更安全。他尝试在迎风面落帆，这对单人航行的水手来说是一个难度相当高的操作，尤其在强风和高速行驶状态下。他需要站在落脚点狭窄的船头，一边拉着帆索，一边收大三角帆。由于失去了对帆索的控制，大三角帆突然落下。当他试图阻止大三角帆落水的时候，他因为船体的剧烈晃动，被甩出船。
另一种则可能是因为设备故障。郭川当时在顺风情况下，用的是缩一级主帆和同样位于主帆前方的J1帆（大前帆），这是晚上最安全的帆面组合。大三角帆当时是收起的但还悬挂在桅杆上（大三角帆不用时可以取下放进前舱里）。但是大三角帆的升帆索或者J1帆索突然断裂，大三角帆落到了水里。这时，郭川先收起J1帆，让船的速度慢下来，再处理落水的大三角帆。当他开始将大三角帆拖上船时，因为浮在水中的大三角帆非常重，他在某个时候必须解开系在身上的安全绳以便在船上移动。这时候一个猛浪把大三角帆和郭川抛出了船。
郭川驾驶的“青岛”号三体帆船上除了30米高的主帆外，还有包括大三角帆和J1帆在内的四具辅帆。具体事故原因赴现场救援的人员无法勘察判断，必须由熟悉这艘三体船的专业人员登船后才能进一步知晓。
根据目前的信息，无论哪一种可能，郭川落水的原因很可能都是在阻止大三角帆落水或挽救已经落水的大三角帆时，因突如其来的海浪或船的剧烈晃动被甩出了船。
郭川船队的水手长约翰·克劳斯分析说，对一个单人航行的水手来说，操控这样一艘超级三体船，无论是收大三角帆，还是把落水的大三角帆拖上船，都是非常困难的事。在两种可能的操作过程中，在某个特定时间段都必须解开安全绳才能完成所有的技术动作。
搜救人员在船上发现了一件救生衣，但因为郭川准备有多件救生衣，所以不能因此否认郭川落水时穿着救生衣。岸队分析认为郭川落水时“有最大可能”还穿着救生衣。
郭川显然遭遇了突发的、不可预料的危险。事发前的海况和个人状况都很正常。
北京时间今天11时30分，郭川岸队接到美国檀香山海岸警卫队电话，乘坐美国海军马金岛号两栖攻击舰从加州圣迭哥港驰援郭川的搜救人员已经设法登上了“中国·青岛号”，但在船上没有找到郭川。
两天以来，檀香山海岸警卫队派出的大力神HC-130飞机已经对“中国·青岛“号航行附近海域进行了六次空中扫描搜救，扫描搜救区域达到方圆4600平方英里，但没有发现郭川。
北京时间今天14时30分左右，美国檀香山海岸警卫队宣布暂停对郭川的空中飞行扫描搜索，并发布了搜救报告。北京时间今天（27日）16时57分，中国海上搜救中心人员也满怀同情地向郭川岸队电话通报了暂停搜救的情况。
国际海上搜救机构已于今日向所有往来事发海域的船只发出通告，要求进入该海域的所有船只在航行同时搜寻郭川。
