As a actual retired US Coast Guard Surfman I'd take my hat off and shake your hand. You are nailing it.

Wheel time is gold. Just let him drive. We used to pull into a marina and start betting. You'd point to the hardest dock to moor into given the wind and tide for the challenger to tie up to. I'm talking tie that boat over there in this gale he-he. Putting fenders out all around of course. Then comes the egg challenge...balance a egg on the bow and 360 touch a bouy. Good times..

Above all else make sure he can radio your lat/long on Ch.16. Really all that matters is that search and rescue just know where to go. Even if a radio went dead I could still drive my boat or direct a helo to last known position. The rescue can figure out all the rest on scene.-WW
