For you H37C folks: have any of you found an effective way to heave to? I have not needed to in 5 seasons in Western Mexico but I plan to take the boat across the Gulf of Tehuantepec either this coming winter or the following fall. Although I will look for a good weather window, 45 knot gales are quite common in those waters and I would like to be better prepared to handle one!

lower your staysail and heave to as you would with a sloop. These 37c's lay " in irons " quite nicely
