Simplest Man Overboard Procedure (Sailing Virgins) Ep. 26

How to do the Simplest Man Overboard (MOB) Recovery Procedure. There are several methods to recover a crew who has fallen overboard. In this episode we cover the simplest method we know: putting a boat into 360 degree turns while the skipper sorts things out. We use the traditional and widely accepted term of Man Overboard (rather than alternatives such as Crew Overboard), regardless of sex. A critical part of this method is pulling in the mainsheet. Read on. If you would like added benefits such as a live chat session each month with James and the crew, plus free swag, consider becoming a Patron. We would greatly appreciate it!

Point at the casualty - keep pointing until they are back on the boat; 2. Yell "Man Overboard!"; 3. Throw a flotation device such as a horseshoe or a Danbuoy; 4. Potentially make a Mayday call; 5. Press the MOB button on the plotter. Here is the recovery procedure covered in this episode shown at 1:35: 1. Sail two boatlengths. This usually equates to a 2-3 deep breaths; 2. Turn the boat into the wind. Keep the boat on this hard lock; 3. Immediately pull in the main sheet when you are into the wind. That's it. Sailing two boatlengths will ensure the boat doesn't run over the casualty. Turning the boat into the wind (crash tack and holding that turn) means the boat will do 360s. Pulling in the mainsheet is essential, as this ensures the gybes are controlled. We then bring the boat so it is two boatlengths upwind of the casualty, and with some reverse cancelling out the forward of the (now stalling) mainsheet, we aim to pick the casualty up from the shrouds. In our example Beverley is not wearing a deckvest when she picks up the casualty. She should be. That's our fault (not Beverley's). We still thought this is worth showing. The rest of the episode has us climbing Petit Piton on the beautifully verdant island of St Lucia. We pass this island during one of our Island Adventures. We always love St Lucia.
