How do lifeboats self-right?

[@mairead5891]

So clever! Crew safety is paramount.

It absolutely it Mairead 😊

I'm glad lifeboats can self right considering they sometimes have to go out in very bad weather, it's a life saver

[@rnli]

It absolutely is Pauline!

Thanks for that explanation. I'd like to add that the watertight crew compartment does not work alone in righting the boat. The mass of the boat below the waterline acts as a gravitational counterweight to the compartment to pivot the boat.
