Another thread has got me to thinking about two questions.
1. If the clew somehow comes undone when you are out on the water and high winds make it impossible to to reattach it, is there a technique to reattach it after capsizing the boat? I tried to do that last summer but the weight of the water on the sail prevented me from lifting it. Girly arms, or bad technique?
2. Is there a way to capsize the boat without falling in? Say you want to capsize due to lightning and lie on the gunwale. Is there a technique for dousing the boat without falling in?
