A mate self-rescued once. He was happily sitting there sailing along making the same sort of speed and upwind angle as a small dinghy.

He had a raceboard and used it as an outrigger fin and leaned out on it a bit like heeling a boat.

the most stressful bit can be untangling your lines afterwards... depending on how well you executed the self rescue.

I'm thinking south passage to the beach would be kinda lonely and intimidating as a self-rescue how far up the beach did you come in?
