Abstract
A joint SNAME/USYRU Project for Safety From Capsizing has led to significant progress in an understanding of the causes and mechanism of the single wave impact capsize. The paper traces the background of the project, outlines the approach selected in pursuing answers to the concerns of the yachting community, presents related findings from other research and describes capsizing model tests and the linear regression of the Fastnet '79 data.Keywords
