Depends how much they weigh. With wide racks (less than 75kg), they should be okay in lighter winds. However, it can take a while to get use to!

Initially they will work on not capsizing to leeward, then as skills and confidence grow it will be to not teabag and broach to windward. Have them practice tipping over and recovering and how to get on and off the wire quickly, then some practice connecting and disconnecting the wire without looking at it. You can hang a wire from a rafter to practice from, put some padding under them just in case. Good fun and very worth it.

What are they like on a run? Do you get the death roll?

It's pretty stable downwind, especially because you tend to do zigzag angles downwind for most efficient route (not quite as high as an asymmetric though), so it's a lot more stable.

@@wrussell Not always possible to zigzag, if the channel is narrow. I used to sail an Enterprise, which had real issues sailing directly downwind.

@@Alastair510 yeah it struggles to go dead downwind because the shrouds are quite far back so might be a challenge on a narrow channel
