This weekend i was out sailing with a friend and we had some really nice wind, and started getting the one hull on top of the water. We were moving and having a great time. Then I let my friend stear and all of a sudden, the boom is coming right at my head and just misses me. Then i realize the opisite hull is coming out of the water and really slowly is coming over and I turn to look at my buddy and hes gone swimming away, leaving me on my H16 about to go over. i jump off just before the trimp comes down, right were i was. When i was trying to right the thing i hear this noise and its the mast filling up with water so know i have a baot that is flipped over the mast is filled wuth water and a buddy that is afread to even come near it. lol. But then some really nice people come over and help me flip it back over and help me sail back to the beach and while am doing this i have water squarting out of my mast hitting me in the fast and my buddy wont even get on he got a ride back in the powerbaot that helped us. man was that a great weekend

Also, you need to re-seal your mast or you'll never right the thing by yourself, it'll weigh way too much. ;)
