There are a couple of easy ways to prevent the boat from flipping over you while righting it...easiest is probably just to hold onto the dolphin striker as the boat lands on the water. [/quote]
I tried and missed completely the first time. Actually I was surprised by how quick it righted and wasn't properly prepared

It sounds like the seam between the hull and deck lid just broke under the weight of you and crew when you shifted your weight over it.

At that time of the pop which had to have been the failure my crew (guessing 120 lbs) was sitting on touching the front cross bar and I (250 lbs) was on the inspection port. Well forward of the area that broke. Far more weight has been applied to the other hull while sitting on the beach for a photo op. I have a hard time seeing this as damage caused by load alone.
I hope to put up pics tonight.
