[quote]Letting (a centered traveler out) gives you a better chance of saving it (not capsizing) than letting out the main (since it will have a greater change on your "ANGLE OF ATTACK"[/quote] So then let out the traveler line first if you can, prior to sheet [quote]but zig zags downwind, which is normally the way.[/quote] Running is not really desired... zig zag to reaches is prefered in any sailboat unless I suppose if you have a spin up. So when is a capsize most likely.. upwind or on a reach. There's always turning upwind too to offset tipping pending how far the rudder is out of the water...[/quote]
