Based on my own limited experience, that sounds about right.
I used to have a small Hobie and capsized it several times. Unless
you could anticipate the gust coming before it actually hit, it would
be over before you could head up or ease the mainsheet.
These folks in the Gulf last week at least had the advantage of warm
water.
