Great ideas the red tape on the port side tubes and the lanyard on the dagger board. I haven't capsized YET, and somewhere I have heard this. When righting the tiwal have you tried first rotating it so the sail is facing the wind? That way when the sail comes out of the water the wind will help push. Great video as always! Len
Why are you sailing with the dagger board not even located correctly? Whilst on a broad reach it doesn't need to be fully down, but still requies a 3rd to 2/3rds down. You need to to counter the sail's center of pressure which is high above the pivot point; the longitudinal axis at the deck watermark. Also, you camera angle suggest your body is high. It needs to be lower, keeping the C of G low. The combination of no dagger board, high center of pressure and C of G is why you capsized.
