Our Aussie friend, Graham Parton saved a whole bunch of Jim Michalak's essays before Jim closed his website. Then Michael Hayden found more articles I was able to download the 120 articles - 839 pages - and assemble them into a single PDF file with a clickable index. This is a great resource and it helps Jim out too. Michael pointed out that this PDF is searchable, so you can search for any key word in the document. This is much easier than searching online. Here are the essays in the PDF: AF3 Capsize Tests
