[quote=Edchris177]I should have mentioned that that experience was in a 20kt blow. I too weigh in at 175, if the wind is light I need a righting bag.
If the wind is light, you have to work to turtle the boat though. It is when the boat goes over in a blow, immediately starts drifting downwind, the sail digs in like a chisel, & the wind pushes you to turtle.
If the wind is light, as long as you don't hang on the upper hull/shrouds, & the mast is sealed & has positive buoyancy it won't turtle immediately.[/quote]
