Evan it’s not that hard with a mono. Had to do it when our designated picker upper dude couldn’t get out of his bunk because he was in de-tox from the night before. This was in the Grenadines where you don’t pick up a pennant you pick up the ball. Rig a long line from the bow cleat – pull up next to the ball slooooooowly - slip it in to the eye and casually walk to the bow and cleat that end. Take a bow. If it doesn’t go that way swear a lot and go to a different location and repeat. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Banana.gif" alt="" />
