MOB Drill (Man Overboard)

A man overboard drill is a safety procedure that prepares a crew to quickly recover a person who has fallen into the water. Charter guests typically experience a MOB drill during the safety briefing on check-in day, led by the skipper or crew. The drill covers spotting and marking the person's position, maneuvering the boat, deploying recovery equipment, and pulling the person back aboard. Regular practice ensures all crew members know their roles and can execute the recovery efficiently under real emergency conditions.
