Great presentation EXCEPT that the MOB should be picked up on the LEEWARD side of the boat. Reasons: 1. ASA says so 2. the boat will heel toward the leward side (so less freeboard for the MOB to get back on board) 3. the sheets will fall over the leward side( and can be used to help recover the MOB) 4. and this is the biggie - the boat will be pushed toward the MOB if the MOB is leeward of the boat. If the MOB is to the windward side of the boat, the boat will be blown away from the MOB.

Also quoting from John Rousmaniere's 2005 COB report; "The Final Approach - Sailing maneuvers should usually end the same way - (1) on a close reach (2) with the boat to windward of the victim and (3) with the boat at low speed. 1. When sailing on a close reach, a sailboat can be slowed or sped up with small adjustments of the helm and sheets. 2. Positioning the boat to windward was the near-unanimous preference of victims in sailboat tests (powerboat rescues involve other considerations). Because boats drift downwind faster than people, a victim to windward may be quickly separated from rescuers. In very rough weather, however, the boat may blow down violently onto the victim. Victims were adamant that jibs be doused or furled so flailing sheets do not threaten injury. "

Thank you for watching and for your thoughtful comments. I will respond to both here. While to leeward side is the current ASA advice, is was not just a few years ago. I stay with windward because when performing the figure 8 MOB, you return to the MOB with luffing sails, and I do not want any students out of the cockpit to leeward with luffing sails, as the sheets can cause real injury. Because you may practice the figure 8 MOB daily, a dozen or two times within a short period of time, its not practical to furl the jib each time. Provided you do furl or drop the jib, I think it is somewhat a personal opinion as both approaches have their pluses and minuses. I will add a comment to the introduction on this issue. This summer I will do a followup video reviewing the quick stop MOB and will video using both sides in different circumstances and see what we get. The approach John describes above is what the ASA calls the "safety position".

+1 for leeward recovery, much less likely to lose touch with the MOB. Otherwise another informative video with good camera work but, once again, extraneous music at excessive volume detracts somewhat from the content.

Interesting COB manoeuvre, which is ok if you have very little wind or waves. But this is possibly a big problem if wind and waves are strong, you furl the jib, and can’t get the motor started or don’t have one, then you don’t have the jib to help with steerage and control, and you could end up hitting the COB or are not able to get close enough, wasting valuable time.

All recovery procedures have their risks and shortcomings. None are the ultimate answer. That said, this is the one COB procedure I think most people can execute, most successfully, most of the time.

I know this is a taught method of MOB. But in heavy seas not the best way to do it. In 2m waves, a head is very small at 100 meter away. I prefer to immediatly heave to or crash tack. Heaving to allows you to keep sight of the MOB. where you can throw a line too and pull them to the boat. Crash tack keeps you near the MOB as you pass can throw a line to sail around him and tack again and heavy to this allows you to pull him in again. Being next to a 40+ yacht in 2 metres seas is a risk of inflicting injuries to the MOB. IT Best to wear a harness and teather on to the boat.

Bruce, thanks for the comments. I would point out that this procedure properly performed ensures you dont get further than two boat lengths from the MOB, so unless you are sailing a 50 meter yacht, seeing 100 meters is not a concern... more like 60-80 feet.
