ASER - no, we would hover over the target so the winchman is taken straight to the dinghy without swimming. Yes I figured it was like all promotional videos - you what the film crew says, not what you would really do.
Hi Crab

What hight do u use when going in over the raft? (without risking to turn it over with the downwash in little or no wind).

What references do u use when over the raft, or u rely on the autohover?

Do u use the same procedure during day (with horizon and good reference on the water) and night (with no horizon and lack of references in the water)?

Best regards
