The counter-jumper looked pale about the gills and being too scared to bail flopped on his marrow-bones. Now praying on shipboard is not to be scoffed at, but it should be delayed until man has exhausted every possible means of saving the ship.

start to bail, unless you have a self bailing cockpit and can sail it dry. Get one sail sheeted in and pulling enough to get some movement and then steer a comfortable course like a beam reach, to give the crew a few minutes to sort things out.

Once swamped you had to get it back to the beach to bail it out. The O'pen looks ideal to me for the job. You cannot swamp it and if it capsizes-and it will capsize-it can be very easily righted.
