[High brace - hasn't this proved to be a good technique for
dislocating a shoulder ?. I don't normally teach a high brace because
of this. Am I wrong ?.]

High brace in front quarter to midship area. On the move you need to
brace in the front quarter as the movement of the boat through the
water will sweep the arm back. If you start midship you will end up in
the rear quarter and in a potential dislocation scenario.
But if we don't teach it how do people know how to use it when they
need it...
