What to do when boat capsizes?

When a tiny sailing boat like an Optimist for example capsizes and you're in the water, swim round to the back of the boat and check if your rudder is still there. If it is, then swim to where you had your centerboard/ dagger board is and use your weight to push it down. If you're not heavy enough, try to sit on it. When the boat does flip back up, mind your head in case the boat rights itself over you and climb back on. Also, grab onto the main sheet when you just fell into the water because it might help you climb back up onto the boat. If when the boat capsizes you're on top of it out of the water; which is called dry capsize, do the same thing except because you're on the boat, stand on the rudder and get ready to hop inside when the boat swings over. It might if you turn the boat facing the wind so the wind can't make the boat capsize again when you bring it back up! If your boat turtles which means the sail is directly under the water, climb onto the boat and lean back in one direction to bring the boat back up again. Also, if you have a crew, you must always make sure they're not under the boat when you stand on it because the air pocket under the boat might become less and the person might suffocate. If you're on a yacht and the yacht capsizes (which is impossible unless you were hit by a tsunami) the yacht will just do a roll and come back up again because of the keel. The keel which is like a centerboard except it's fixed to the boat and is way heavier than a centerboard. The keel is so heavy that it will turn the yacht back up again and you don't have to worry about anything except the wet things in the yacht. -J
