Congrats on getting Mark back. I’m going to add lights to the PFDs and marking the chart plotter or radio with MOB to my MOB drills.

Advise: Get a buoy with light. In case of a man overboard the buoy is set overboard as well. And for each trip check the light of the buoy.

That’s what the old IOR boats had, every one of ‘em. They even had a tube built into the transom to hold the MOB pole. It was attached to a life ring. If someone went into the drink, the first thing a crew did was to yell Man Ovahboahd! Then pull out that pole and throw it ovah, it also had an orange flag at the top fir daylight rescue. Time to go back to those days. Those guys were tough

A most remarkable story, I have learned from this what extra to carry when night sailing, that even sea school does not suggest. A search light and life jackets that all have lamps. Maybe listeners should also remember to clip on as soon as emerging from below deck with double harness to move about whilst always clipped on! Be clipped on at all times especially night as no task is so urgent that this step should be missed

What a great story! It reminds us all that it's so important to be prepared for whatever the seas throw at us at any time! Be prepared, double check your safety gear regularly and always wear your life jacket.

Even boats that do not have AIS will usually have a navigation system that allows marking an MOB position. Of course wind, tide, current, and any delay in pressing that MOB button will alter where he is, but it pins a good starting point. It's also helpful from the perspective of communication to other boats and coast guard who come to help. The hard part in the frenzy of the spin douse is to ask somebody to press that MOB button.

That was the first thing I thought of. Any boat of that size should have a navigation system with a MOB. I'm also surprised each person was not wearing a EPIRB. They are not expensive. The biggest issue is that you never want the tyranny of the urgent to cloud your judgement.

You need a good pfd, preferably one with a deployable spray cover, then the pfd needs a portable Water proof strobe light that have been around for freekin fohevah and a portabke EPIRB. All crew should be wearing pfds with lanyahds when on watch and even in an emergency, no ine is allowed on deck without theur pfd and safety harness, secured to a hard point, especially at night. No bravado, no heroes and no exceptions. That is the first duty of the watch capt’n and the capt’n .

Those whistles 😂amazing !!!!! I used one kitesurfing lol it was attached to my life jacket so I thought hey use this . I could see people but due to the wind the sound did not reach them and I rescued myself after all . Until this video I’ve thought how useless whistles are but ! Wow 😅

Interesting story but no explanation of why you did not use the lifejacket AIS to locate and recover. Surely that is exactly what it is for? No mention of harnesses too. Its a great story with a good outcome but lessons learned could be perhaps expanded

Yes I World liek to know, Wetter this ais System was working or not? Surely in it World habe worked the yacht Could have navigated there clone to 2 meter...

@onthebeaches Жыл бұрын

My thoughts as well. Seems like safety took a back seat. No harness and why aren't you using the MOB and AIS system to drive right to him?

Grea video of a tough story that ended really well. Thank you. What brand of life jacket was it that was so hard to buckle up? I ask because I have come across Spinlock jackets that are really hard to buckle. I now have a German one, Secumar, which has a really easy buckle a little like a car seat belt.
