🔍 Key Concepts

• Differences between immediate man overboard turns and delayed recovery patterns • When a Williamson turn and Scharnow turn are typically used • Importance of time since person went overboard and whether you still see the person in the water

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: Which maneuver is designed mainly for when you have lost sight of the person and need to retrace your wake? • Consider which turns are intended for immediate response when you still have the person clearly in view. • Think about which maneuver brings you back well astern of your original track instead of close to the point of departure.

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify which maneuver is specifically recommended when the person is still in sight on the same side as they fell overboard. • Check which turn is meant for searching along the wake after some time has passed, rather than for instant recovery. • Confirm which option is known for producing a large, delayed loop that brings the ship back to its track farther astern, not near the point where the person fell.
