The reason why I stopped searching was the consideration that by the activation of the tethering, the cat would probably capsize or turn into the wind.
would the desired objective be to keep the boat nearby (even if capsized)? Would the boat go in irons if the mainsheet were released?
Or to remain attached to the boat at all cost (dragged)? If this is the case, then can the tether be short enough to prevent you from going overboard in the first place?
Or Jake can design a waterproof remote control on your pfd to park the boat in irons (or sail it back to your PLB)
