Since I built the watertight side seats on my skiff I hadn't tested the boat's behavior when capsized. It was time to practice some capsize recovery!! The skiff floated higher, still didn't have the tendency to turtle and the hollow box mast proved really helpful with that!!
It's always good to know what to expect by training under controlled circumstances, the more you practice the better you react when it happens!
All in all an amazingly well spent afternoon!
It's all about having fun! 😁

Those side seats are giving you a metric but ton of buoyancy! Outstanding!

Thanks captain capsize! very convincing. I'm heading out to buy another sheet of plywood now.

Thanks for sharing ,I love the 360 camera shots ....they make all the difference, I think I'm going to have to get one cheers Paul

@TheBoatRambler 2 года назад

It does feel weird at first, when you're editing but it brings something else to the table... 😉 One thing they don't tell you is that although the camera films in 5.7K, that is the res at full fish eye mode. by the time you correct the distortion you will get 1080P or 1440p at best.

@andyjarman4958 2 года назад

Without that buoyant mast you might have had trouble with turning turtle. Those side seats combined with the weight of the rig would have been a dangerous combination. As it is, your boat is better than a lot of life rafts! Well done

@TheBoatRambler 2 года назад

Hey Andy, the GIS already has 300 liters buoyancy built in from original design. it wont sink! 😁

@alexd1759 2 года назад

Well Done. Wash, rinse, and repeat on a windy day, make sure you have a length of rope to hold onto so the boat does not get blown away. :-)

@TheBoatRambler 2 года назад

Hi Alex. You can see on the footage the floating line trailing from the transom. Hopefully long enough! 😅

@andyjarman4958 2 года назад

Now try it with the centreboard up! This happened to me in a laser, impossible!

@TheBoatRambler 2 года назад

well one can always swim around and go put that daggerboard down to make it easy to flip it.

@dancapps3374 Год назад

Have you thought of putting in a self drain , or auto bailer valve thing ?

@TheBoatRambler Год назад

Hi Dan! no not really, the GIS is a very dry boat and the auto bailer alwys end up letting water in the boat at some point. Also in 3 seasons I have never accidentally capsized the boat (yet) so....🤞

@michaelbell7465 2 года назад

Has any builder done one with a waterproof sole built higher than the DWL with rear scuppers to be self bailing in a static condition? I was surprised how easy it was to capsize with just your weight shift.

@TheBoatRambler 2 года назад

Hi Michael, The GIS is lightweight & fast much like a performance dingy. Like most racing dinghies (and many others) if you don't compensate your weight on the gunwalle with some wind on the sail, it will flip!

@andyjarman4958 2 года назад

I read somewhere that climbing in over the transom risked the boat turning away from the wind and racing off without you!

@TheBoatRambler 2 года назад

Hi Andy! Even if it turned away from the wind the tendency would be to go round to windward as the tiller is loose. 😉

@andyjarman4958 2 года назад

Try it without the mast, that would be interesting. Imagine you tear your sail in high winds and decide to row. Knowing how important the mast is to prevent capsize would be an important reason not to take the mast down.

@TheBoatRambler 2 года назад

Rowing in high winds with the GIS high sides would be almost impossible. Better off trying to just go downwind to the closest shore if possible.

@buynsell365 Год назад

Excellent Job !!!! That is SO MUCH EASIER to right than my Nacra 20na. I can't wait to build one like this. Was the plans worth the 100 dollars or did they leave out a lot of information?

@TheBoatRambler Год назад

It has all the info you need and more tips and tricks! Very comprehensive plans, great support from a very active FB group and the designer is readily available to take care of any questions that the group can't answer! 😉

@chrisw8259 2 года назад

Maybe I missed it, but it looked like all your capsizes were to starboard. Have you tried any to port?

@TheBoatRambler 2 года назад

Hi Chris! You are right! I was trying to see how much water would go in the hatch with the camera in it and I ended up not capsizing to port! It is an important test since the mast will be under the sail, boom and yard. I will do it next time! 😉

@Thatbobberlife Год назад

@DorsetSaferRoads 2 года назад

What about a little electric bildge pump?

@TheBoatRambler 2 года назад

Hi Adrian! Some of the GIS owners have made a watertight box with a pump and battery to have aboard. It is a good idea and I might just make one too! 😉

@cosybike 2 года назад

They are very slow. Maybe useful in his buoyancy tanks or for emptying the last few litres. Buckets do 14 litres in one pump. Look like 5 or 6 scoops in this boat. Mine is about 15! I have an electric pump for under my floorboards too.

@johnshoureas1629 3 года назад

Nice recovery. I thought those hatches were supposed to be watertight.

@TheBoatRambler 3 года назад

Thanks! Big hatches are prone to leaks. There are some good ones but are usually really expensive. 😅

@AdrianGalindoHome 2 года назад

My understanding is that those type of hatches are only supposed to be watertight on a vertical surface

@TheBoatRambler 2 года назад

The GIS as a really big sail with 3 lines of reefs so you don't sail on a gale with full sale. 😉 You can see me sailing the GIS on 30Kn gusts with one reef in the "Downriver" video on my Channel
