Question from someone who has never been on a boat longer than 30 feet. What is the procedure for man overboard? These big ships presumably don’t stop or turn on a dime.
This is pure speculation, but I’d imagine they’d lower a lifeboat in order to search, because as you said, turning around an entire ship would be difficult.
