Furl your sails, lower the mast, keep low (you will be the highest point, otherwise, and be at risk for a lightning strike), secure any loose gear, turn into the waves, and secure your flotation device. If the boat capsizes, stay with the boat.
Go to shore
Drop a sea anchor off the bow.

Reduce speed and head into the waves at a 45-degree angle.Panic and call for help. If you have a radio, it's even better.
Get out as fast as you can.
Deploy a storm anchor (sea anchor) from the bow; something that will slow the boat's drift downwind. Something like a small drogue parachute in the water. The wind will cause the boat to drift, and the waves to rise; the storm anchor will slow down the drift, and keep the boat pointed into the wind. Bow-on is the safest direction for your boat to meet the waves. Otherwise, the wind would tend to push the boat sideways, and you could easily capsize.
Seek shelter.
Put on a jacket if it is not on already
