How far down has your boat been (intentionally or unintentionally) and how well did it recover? Details of winds, waves and sails would be interesting.

H260 around 35 degrees

I am guesstimating somewhat on the angle, but each time that occurred, the boat would round up due to the rudder going dry and losing effect. I am still trying to learn the feel of the boat in higher winds and improve my handling skills, but it does feel as if it could use a little more rudder. YMMV

In my H26, I got caught in a combination current and wind conflict and heeled 40 degrees. I lost rudder control but it rounded up and all was well. BrianW
