Hi Dave,



I'll add one more thing to what's already been said. Assuming you're not turtled - to get the boat oriented properly with respect to the wind, move your weight towards the front of the boat until the bow just starts to go under - the sterns will swing around until the wind is hitting somewhere between the bows and the mast. Then move your weight aft a bit and lean back on the righting line. The wind will get under the main and right the boat for you. At 160lb I've been able to right the boat by myself with a 15-20MPH breeze. I still need to get around to capsizing in lighter air to make sure I can still right it by myself w/o problems
