...OK, it loads way easy, very cool; but to suggest that you can reload for a second throw is, well, stupid IMO. Basic swift water SAR teaches to pull the bag in as quick as possible after a miss, scoop the bag full of water and throw again. Even with the rope strewn all over a bag even half full throws better/further than the first deployment. If someone needs a rope they need it without delay.

FWIW, t.george
