Sailboats have motors that can reverse. No it isn’t hard to turn around unless they’re in a savage storm or extremely large waves. Which judging by the picture they aren’t. At all.
The smaller the ship the easier it is to maneuver.
He is right though, please at all times wear life jackets on boats - regardless if that is on sailing or motorised vessels! It is extremely hard to stay afloat and alive until the crew is in a state to help.
It happens way too often and even to experienced sailors.

lol “wear something I consider appropriate” like I’m criticizing her wardrobe.
The ridiculousness of your comment was kind of my point.
Oh no, you’re just criticizing the person like a literal dipshit.
We’re talking about safety equipment, not her fashion choices.
