Steve Dashew just put up a post with video that analyzes the capsize of a trawler in monstrous seas. While we have never been in seas remotely like the ones in the video, we did see 20 plus footers on our way to Tonga last year. That was more then enough to convince us that Iron Lady’s self righting characteristics and ability to recover from being fully inverted are really important if one is considering ocean crossings.
