I've got one, have yet to get it wet (today, or some time soon, after
I'm finished working with the electrician, I'm installing sculling
oarlocks, and then will test it in all forms).

However, you're the first one I've heard say you use it for in-and-out
while swimming/diving/whatever where you can't step in.

Would you mind being specific as to how you do that? We're expecting
our ribby to be the dive boat, but my expectation is that the PB will
get the nod in every other case.

Thanks.

"And then again, when you sit at the helm of your little ship on a
clear
night, and gaze at the countless stars overhead, and realize that you
are
quite alone on a great, wide sea, it is apt to occur to you that in the
general scheme of things you are merely an insignificant speck on the
surface of the ocean; and are not nearly so important or as
self-sufficient
as you thought you were. Which is an exceedingly wholesome thought,
and one
that may effect a permanent change in your deportment that will be
greatly
appreciated by your friends."- James S. Pitkin
