RE: Your throwable type 4

We also have a lifesling and 24" throwable.*We use the MOB button on anchor deployment and the boom is rigged with a snap shackle for lowering the outboard. *From time to time we discuss how these would be used in a MOB and as a result, we are reinforcing our knowledge of these tools.

Kathy went off the dink this year and we made a loop with the painter for her to use as a step to get back into the boat. *It was a sobering reminder that it is impossible at our age to get out of the water, even with one person still on board, without a plan.

cheers,
