Best of luck. You'll sail much more confidently if you know how to easily right your boat. But seriously, make sure you have planned for a fail-safe in case things don't go like you hope. I would at least take some buddies with you (to make sure you have righting weight if you need it), someone with another hobie, or even better someone with some motor assistance. (tow in) Let's hope you don't have to experience the last one. Dress for the water. Tell us how it goes and good luck.
