That's an excellent tip.
On board any of my boats, one of the first things I do is a quick safety talk. Walk on the windward side of the boat when going forward, use coach top not life lines for support, life jackets, flares, fire extinguishers, etc then go into the if you fall over board . . .remember . . . .on a boat like this in extremely cold waters . . . . .it takes me . . . .a good ten minutes . . . to stop . . .laughing!! And you DON"T want to be in THAT water THAT long!
