I am looking for comments about Hobie Gary's Solo Right system by users of the system.

http://www.geocities.com/hobiegary/soloright.html

I have seen mostly positive comments by several users on this forum who say they like it. The only negative comment I have seen was someone who had problems balancing on the oar. However, doing a search of the site, I could find no dedicated discussion.

Any general comments?

I have not seen the system close up. It appears the oar used as the pole somehow possibly wedges into the dagger board slot. That area seems reinforced, but I am concerned this would put some heavy stress on that area. Has anyone had any problems with this?

I have a Nacra 5.5SL (18ft). I weigh 150 lbs. I often sail solo. I was unsuccessful in righting the boat solo using a large Murrays water bag during a test in light winds. The mast is well sealed, I believe.

Thanks
