I enjoyed your presentation with Dick York on man overboard. Having been washed overboard 300 miles north east of Bermuda on a tack to the Azores in a strong gale by a rogue, or breaking cumulative wave, that broke over the boom of a 75′ Little Harbor I have a valuable article from the 90’s I would like to get to him. It was written by my wife and Co-captain and published in Ocean Navigator. It presents important information about recovery in huge seas and necessary equipment and preparation not covered in his excellent information.
By the way I’m 6000 miles into a solo circumnavigation of the North Atlantic out of Miami on my 42′ CaboRico Pilothouse, via Bermuda, Newfoundland, Iceland, etc.
