Would it ever be humanly possible to right an H20 single handedly? what about those "righting poles". Seems like a sailor could get some leverage with one.

You can easily single-hand right a H20 in big air and waves :-) Done it several times after the crew got washed off. 2 people can have a hard time in light air and flat water. The righting poles add a lot of leverge; work pretty well from what I hear.
