Absolutely. Without naming any names or getting to specific, I can
think of a few adults who could/would benefit from such a device.

Anybody else ever retrieved a party animal at dockside?

LOL!!

More than once.

Of course my favorite was a guy I took striper fishing off Martha's at
SW Ledge.

Fighting a large striper walked right off the bow of the Ranger.

It was really funny.

My favorite, was I was about 9 and we came back from a day of salmon fishing
on a friends 63'er. Bill Rodgers, a small guy is getting off the boat with
a case of beer in one arm and an open beer in the other. Slips and goes
between the boat and dock, Shortly came up and only lost the open beer.
Over 50 years ago and still laugh about it.
