Ill tell you what. Im about 175 lbs. I turned my 16 over a few times sailing solo. I found if I used a some of the end of the main and put a loop in the end of it and tie it to my trap seat you can use your 175 lbs to your advantage. It takes a minute but it will come up. Then you have to drop down and grab your bottom hull so it dosent go back over the other way.
