I kept thinking they had a chance at recovery. It looked like slo-mo on the way over.
But....nope.
Love the underwater emergency escape porthole. You probably don't find those on monohulls.
I wonder why????

So uh... what happens next? How do they flip one of those things over?

I didn't realize just how big that thing was until these teeny tiny little people started crawling out.

It looks like the bouyancy of the mast is what snaps the mast - I mean, as the weight of the capsizing boat forces the mast deeper into the water, the bouyancy snaps the mast. But it stands up to rig loads. That's some pretty fine-drawn engineering.
