Just wondering how hard it is to right a PA if you flip it in deep water?
Has anyone tried?
Has anyone flipped a PA yet?

Knowledge is what you get when you read the instructions.
Experience is what you get when you don't.

I came close the other weekend down at Sunnyside when a group of 4 young blokes in a stinker decided to use me as a bouy on a race course. Not a good experience

Thanks for the link cybertrouts. That’s pretty much how I envisaged the re-right process would go.
Another question for anyone who’s flipped a PA: how much water did it take on while upside down?

and if it sunk it would make a great dive site.
Well past the edge, almost at the point of no return.

You can lagg these idiots into the cops, they come under the same "hoon" laws as motor cars, just get the rego and call into the police station, the quicker these nutbags are off the water the better.Fly Fisher wrote:I came close the other weekend down at Sunnyside when a group of 4 young blokes in a stinker decided to use me as a bouy on a race course.
