Yes Dennis, I agree with you.

After one night sleep, my idea was already vanished.

Problem is that I sail only with wind mostly more then 15 knots. Therefor after the righting itself, there is always this risk on flipping through to the other side.
This is especially true for a single-handed sailer who tends to swim his sails more off the wind for support.

So when the mast comes up, I'm used to dive to the leeward hull in order to keep it down.
Hanging with my hook on a uphaulline is working contra.
