[quote=pbegle]The important issue here is not what caused the boat to capsize. All small cats & club monohauls are expected to capsize--it's the nature of the beast. You don't get on one if you're afraid of capsize. The important issue is (according to preliminary investigation) she was wearing a trapeze harness with a hook in it. There have been 7-8 deaths like this in last ten years. She was NOT wearing a Bethwaite ball & socket harness,period. And capsize recovery should be practiced before extensive sailing is done.
