Should the trap hook opening point up or down. Logic would say down, however, My son(18 y/o) & I were discussing how to
get back onto the boat in a 3 foot chop with out damaging a hull or the tramp. We were out Saturday in 15-20 mph winds,
having a blast & the thought occured how would I get back on in a full wetsuit, Full harness(magic marine) & life jacket without placing the harness hook directly on a hull.
Son says you have to be a contorsonist, jumping up & twisting at the same time while trying to keep the boat from
getting away. Aside from the obvious(don't fall off) is there a proper method. <img src="http://www.catsailor.com/forums/images/graemlins/ooo.gif" alt="" />
