When on any boat you should always be wearing a life preserver vest. The first thing after a board capsizes is to seek the waters surface. There may be an air pocket that forms inside the overturned hull that will let you get your bearings as to where you are and how to best get to the waters surface. Stay calm and do not panic if at all possible.
