Come on guys, throw the guy a line, bring him aboard where it's easiest.
Probably on the scoop/swim platform on this boat. Certainly not on my
double ender.


That's the truth...... for me it would be aft of abeam alongside the
cockpit coaming... I can snap on a block&tackle to my boom and raise even
500lbs out of the water with little to no effort.


That's a good plan, but first contact with the MOB should ideally be
at the beam, then you can move them where you need to...is that where
you would make first contact with the people in the water?
