[quote=MN3]i have a small list of items required to right my cat:
1. set my anchor - this makes sure i am bows into the wind
2. take my main blocks off the boom
3. either furl my jib/ or center it by pulling both sides of the line. this will help get wind under the jib (to help right it) and will prevent it from filling with air and taking off after the righting.
4. pull out BOTH righting bags... and get out on the line (ps i find it helpfull to put a loop in my righting line so i can hook onto it with my harness
on another note: on a reach, i would probably travel out to contain the helling motion of a gust.
