Default parachutes and drogues

I've never had that happen..... but then again I've never tried to do it
by myself. Bow watch with boat hook and crew on the winch to take up slack.

My understanding is the trip lines just get fouled up.

BTW... I cannot trip the parachute in strong winds and large seas without
auxiliary power to manoeuvre to within trip float range. If you have the
option to run with the storm...... I prefer the drogue.
