If you are being dragged in the water, you are probably dead, or soon to
be regardless of being face up or face down, or if the boat gets turned
around and manages to even locate you. Set up your jacklines, etc, as if
the water is really molten lava. Chances of recovery of someone who goes
overboard with a full crew aboard are statistically VERY low no matter
what, and if you are a single-hander, then your chances are essentially
non-existent. Plan accordingly.

Just a thought on the foam pfd's; if they are water ski/kayak activity
vests, they probably won't keep you face up if you are unconscious
(and not being dragged through the water by the jacklines).
