I think I'm going to try a variation on one of the previously-mentioned
ideas: Short painter (three boat lengths, or 100 feet for good measure)
but additional MOB line (same polypropylene or other floating line) on a
spool. Quick release on the spool would allow the rest of the painter
(as MOB line) to pay out while the boat encircles the MOB. I think it's
worth experimenting with. The inflatable stays attached to the boat, as
does the line.




How are you planning on trying it?

Oh, I figure I'll pick up an expendable crewman at the marina and toss
them overboard. That's what Captain Kirk would do.



Ah... well, I know some people I could volunteer. g
