    I once read a short story about this in a magazine. I think it was in Hawaii
    and they used a USCG cutter to do it. They first cut holes in the flotation
    chambers at one end of the boat, then pitchpolled it upright by pulling on a
    bridle.

    I vaguely remember these advertised in a magazine.
