Hi, guys.....I missed all the shirt excitement by being gone for a few days.
I'll buy a few too assuming the design is halfways nicely done.  Someone on
the BCC list volunteered to make shirts for the group and I bought some from
them.  In their case it was a small but very distinctive profile of the BCC
embroidered on the left breast with 3 colors of thread (brown, black, and
white).

I bought some seat-belt type webbing a while back but haven't tried it out
yet.  This summer I'll try to make it a point to do a series of
man-overboard tests with the assistance of my sister, brother-in-law and
nephews. It would be nice to NOT make headlines with:

 Ohio Man Drowns in Erie
during man-overboard drills

Let's see.  I could try:

**various exit points (windward, leeward, foredeck, etc)

**life-jacket only

**life-jacket only with trailing line

**life-jacket with tether

**Mustang suit with tether

Probably 15 kts should be enough wind to give an indication of whether
getting aboard is feasible.  I could have my sister and a nephew with me
aboard Busca and another nephew and brother-in-law aboard their S2 motoring.
A mob flag would probably be good to help keep sight of me...(I am reminded
of the hat I lost on the Potomac last year).

Tod
