Reply to: Hobie 18 THIRD SPLASH-Broken bone, broken boat, sunburned, dehydrated: MAYDAY CALL

[quote=goodsailing][quote]Would the jib not furl?[/quote] The jib sheet came unraveled and got hung up in the jib block so jib couldn't be trimmed properly for tacking. We were tacking with no problem up until the line cratered. I'm replacing the jib sheet and righting line. I'm going with over the hull for righting as getting higher reach would help pull it over. IMHO. Will only sail this boat now with crew to aid in riighting. I'm looking at wave youtube videos and it looks you have just as much fun in a wave as this 18, and could take it out in higher winds. The 18 seems unpredictable when it's gusting above 20. Wave could be easier righting solo.[/quote]
