Well written...and sounds like all your preparation paid off. BTW, do you have
rigging knives attached to the PFDs.. if not, you should. Might also want to look at a two-leg tether, with a long and short leg. Very useful beastie to have around...and is what i use as my primary tether.

You know what the first rule of sailing is? ...Love. You can learn all the math in the 'verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don't love, she'll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she's hurting 'fore she keens. Makes her a home.
