Default Jeff, yet another catamaran capsizes.

This one even looks like the one you sail.

Nice Chaps!
Bet they saved the owner a few bucks by righting the boat for them,
and it looks like they pumped it out for them too. Jolly good job IMO.

Perhaps you'll remember I've often talked about the safety of cruising
cats over 35 feet. That doesn't include 30 foot racing cats. This
boat is, I believe, a Schionning design. Here's what they say about
one of their newer designs: "The Line Honours series of cats is a new
range of racey cruisers concentrating firmly on being a light, fast,
exciting to sail, performance cat without compromise by any secondary
concern for creature comforts." When one sails a boat like this, they
have to accept the possibility of a mishap.
