What's your vote for the stern retrieval, three part tackle or line coiled
and ready to be led to a sheet winch?


For a stern retrieval? Hmmm... it would have to be very calm conditions for
me to try it. That said, you have the backstay, I would have some line
handy. Of course, if the person is unable to help, you'll have trouble with
that method.



In our AP calss they showed us how to tie a 'bowline on a bight' to help
retrieve a man overboard. Hopefully you could slip both legs through
the double loups and hang on.
