Wasn't a storm. You just got caught in a squall. Happens to everyone. You stayed calm and got through it. We can all learn, so thanks for the video.

If you stick a bit of jib up, you'll find she handles a lot better, with much less rolling. I'm my hometown on the North Sea, there are fishing trawlers that still use steadying sails (usually astern of the wheelhouse) to mitigate roll.

I would've been terrified to " Idle " down wind in those conditions, especially heading into shallow water.. I have little experience in those conditions, but I believe I would've headed into that storm, NOT run down wind.. Please share your thoughts.

Nice, to have a helping hand on your shoulder in those conditions..!
But in case of a knock down or a freak wave a closed cabin would be nice, for sure!

A couple of tips…1) Reef early if the wind is building…2) Head up into the wind when reefing or dropping sail…3) Some sail is better than no sail except in very extreme conditions(50 knots plus) it stabilizes the motion of the boat. Maybe a little jib and a fully reefed main or just the jib…4) when going way downwind let out the main all the way until the boom is almost perpendicular to the boat and fit a preventer to stop accidental jibes. I have over 100,000 miles under my keel and I love conditions like this, flat water and strong winds downwind…bliss. Good luck and keep on sailing. The more experience you get the better sailors you will become. As the saying goes…'experience stops you from making mistakes. You gain experience when you make mistakes'.

Maybe just anchor in deep water and wait for the storm to pass. By running from it towards shallow water, you took a risk of running aground.

You should have had a life jacket and mob line attached. Rookie errors. Good learning lesson.

Put up a storm jib.
