I've often wondered, how does the righting pole work when the boat is turtled? The pole doesn't give you any leverage when it's pointing straight up in the air. Do you need a separate righting line for turtled, or do you have to get the pole out quickly and just never let the boat go turtle in the first place?

The righting pole doesn't take much effort to install and is so quick you shouldn't turtle as you just climb on the hull slip the knot into place as you pull the pole in position then hang on. You can also use your leverege level with the main beam instead of the boards keeping the cat head to wind a bit better.
