Not with a bag, pops right back up. Getting back on the boat is a bit of a challenge. I put a loop in the righting line that the bag attaches with. I was going to be all shifty and just swing back onto the boat as it came up, but the loop I tied was still attached to my trap hook and I couldn't get on. I stayed dry up until then :oops: I learn something new, almost everytime I sail this thing.

Not a very impressive crash. I F-ed up a jibe and went over. Slowmotion, "aww crap", kind of capsize. The pic is the boat coming back up.
