Rick, I am concerned about the idea of canting the righting pole up 30 degrees when in use. When the boat comes upright and the pole folds back, won’t one hull be on the pole? Do you limit the angle to prevent that or is the landing soft enough not to damage the pole and/or hull? You'll have to remember to free up the angle before you get aboard so it drags straight back for re-hooking amidships, right? Just one more thing for my tiny brain to forget...
