Righting a Stiletto 27 is becoming a pet interest of mine.
An interesting article can be viewed at:
http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~fsinc/yachts/slade/page2.htm http://www.messingaboutinboats.com/archives/mbissuejuly01.html http://www.f-boat.com/pages/background/capsizearticle.htmlI also have an old Mac 36 owner's manual of how they recommended righting the boat in a capsize.
The process seemed laboriously tough in the inner bay....and more than challenging in the open ocean and conditions which probably dumped the boat.......but when you're upside down...I guess one would have time to sit and think, time to mount an attempt to right the boat or time to wait for someone else to come help....
If anyone is interested in looking over the old Mac 36 owner's manual, give me your email address and I'll attach the acrobat file to my response.
