If my boat ever heeled more than 10 degrees I'd be calling the insurance agent. Last week
I had full sail up while close hauled in a 30 knot gust - we might have heeled 6 degrees. Normally I would have been reefed, but this was a 2 mile zig in the middle of a 50 mile broad reach. You keep making the claims but the bottom line is that it doesn't happen. You can certainly find numerous cases of racing multi flipping, and a few wiped out in harbor during hurricane strikes (though they usually do better than monos), a number of smaller cats (under 34 feet) have had a problem and even a few incidents during deliveries. But there have been almost no cruising cats over 34 feet capsizing while cruising. However, you can't say the same about monohull that roll - a startling number of them stay capsized or sink.

CORRECTION: The recession, which is over and lasted three quarters

Depending on how you define the terms, the number is 3 or 4 or 5. Several cases involved
skipper incompetence, though this is often the case with hindsight. But one was particularly bad - the entire crew didn't have foul weather gear and in a gale refused to go on deck to reef or control the boat - it flipped on autopilot! I know of another autopilot assisted capsize, but it was in a smaller cat that I would include as a cruiser. The only case I know of where the skipper did every thing right and still flipped was in a hurricane off Bermuda (1987?). A number of monohulls were lost without a trace during that storm, but the crew of the flipped cat was rescued. Unfortunately the owner/skipper died because his diabetes medicine was lost. Trimarans have a much worse record - since they can fly an ama they run the risk of stuffing the lee bow with serious stability problems. IIRC the "F" club reports only 1 capsize of a Farrier design ever while cruising, but several a year while racing. "Bobsprit" wrote in message ... You keep claiming cruising cats capsize. They don't.

Several PDQ 36's have crossed the Atlantic, and a significant number (perhaps 15 to 20%)
have gone to Bermuda and then down to the Caribbean.

Perhaps you can post a link to some of these passage logs. Your count of C27's seems real high, especially since the company went belly up a few years after it was introduced. Are you sure that isn't a count of all the boats they built? Since Prout built 4 to 5000 cruising cats, and never had a capsize or sinking, you're going to have trouble beating that record.
