Hey Kevin,

Old P18 owner…..

First, here is where your righting lines should be,

File Attached

You’re looking at the under-side of the boat (all lines under tramp). The red line is your righting line. The Blue line is a bungee cord.

The righting line: On the bottom of the front cross member there should be 2 small grommets/loops that the righting line passes through and is knotted off. The righting line is free to slide through the loop

The Bungee cord: the bungee cord is fixed to the front cross beam and then runs the length of the tramp to the rear beam. At the rear beam there is a loop attached to the inside/bottom of the beam. The bungee is free to slide through the loop. On the end of the bungee in the rear is a pulley that the righting line runs through.

When you go over….: (as the other have stated)
1) Pull in on main sheet to center and cleat. (the wind will get under the sail and aid in righting the boat)
2) Swim to the bow and climb on = Boat will turn slowly into the wind (bow will be under water – that’s ok)
3) When she’s into the wind, scurry down to the front cross beam and grab the top righting line knot and flip it over the upper hull (the one out of the water)
4) Hold onto the knot and lean baby….. lean! She should pop back up.
