Disclose, disclose, disclose. Imagine how someone would feel is they bought a boat unaware of the pitch-pole/capsize phenomena!
These are very physical boats, people should be forewarned before they buy one. Further, in heavy air, handling the spin requires expert skill to avoid upset. Remember, Robbie and Matt didn't go over at all. These things should be common knowledge.
Well, it is not common knowledge to me. I have always been told that you are LESS likely to pitchpole with a spinnaker because a spinnaker LIFTS the bows. Was I naive to believe that? Or is it different with different boats? <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
