Footstraps behind the rear beam are also a good thing. I agree that the moment someone goes forward the boat is toast. Even my I-20 with its bulbous bows will go over if I lose it. I've put it on it's ear before (much to the dismay of my crew), but being solidly attached by one footstrap back there was all it took to drop the stern back down and resume sailing. Funny thing was that it actually took so long to go over (about 2 sec) that I was able to hear quite a few new and colorful metaphors from my crew as she headed for the forestay....
Chicken lines were installed soon after for the crew...
