There, fixed it for you. I've yet to hurt myself doing this - you are leaning off the boat over the water. I guess if your feet skate out from underneath you could bust your but on the hull.

Sounds like an elegant trick Matt. What boats have you successfully used this technique on? Something makes me think this may work better on a shorter platform with less flotation at the ends, but I'm happy to be educated otherwise.
