What should you do if a member of your crew accidentally falls into the water?
left in water would not be a nice thing to do, and if we are not baywatch lifeguards is better not to improvise, if not instead of a person, our commander has to save two people!
In case of a fall "man overboard" need to immediately put the rudder on the side fall, contrary to the propeller and the stern of the wreck. After this maneuver, if not go to low speed and are on average long-boat, are launching a buoy-type ring. If we were to lose a man overboard during a night navigation, as well as we should launch a buoy to buoy light (photo) to mark the point. When, we must approach 70 °, reverse side up to the helm to take reverse route from the initial one.
The hull will complete an arc (curve Williamson, photo) until you get near the sinking. The budget must be large by about 60 ° to 90 °. We will approach the leeward castaway, if we have a small boat, and if we have a boat big we get closer to windward, so you can repair the castaway by waves and wind, making us drift close to it.
The combination of about 70 ° allows us to reach the point where the survivor without going too far or having to take more operations than necessary.
At the point we want to rescue our crew and continue browsing.
I am attaching this video, the man overboard recovery. It would be better not lose a crew member in this way, but at least these guys have "saved".
Fair winds to all!
