Hey there
Last weekend I was racing an etchell in what was advertised as 18-20 knot winds , but probably ended up more like 23+
anyway we beat the rest of the keelboats by about 5 minutes (they are mostly trailer sailors) but we saw about 3 of the clubs tornados cap and it seemed like the ones that didnt turtle were able to get it eventually, with the aid of their righting poles. (with the bigs cats are pretty much a necessity) but from personal experience definitely the best thing to do is make sure your mast has no leaks. you can also try to point the hulls slightly off the wind and this will help bring the boat over.And if you are going two up it can be an idea to get one of you to hover under the end of the mast to make sure it doesnt go under. always remember in the event of any incident the best thing to do is stay with the boat. by the way, your TRAC 14 is actually known as a Windrush 14 over here , the factory is not far from my house.
myself I actually have a Paper Tiger catamaran that I am readying for summer and hope to sail in the 14ft class.
