One side of this two-sided wheel directs initial actions and recovery when a person goes overboard; the reverse side describes the 5 steps of the Williamson Turn maneuver.The Williamson Turn, sometimes referred to as the button hook turn, is a time-honored rescue technique used for vessels under power when the location of the overboard person in the water is uncertain.  When a person falls overboard, immediate action is crucial.  The priority is to position the vessel near the overboard victim as soon as possible. To do this, the vessel must quickly reverse course by running a reciprocal course. A reciprocal course is putting and holding the vessel on a course that is exactly the reciprocal of the original course.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eThe five step instructions for this maneuver are easy to follow, with the use of the compass dial on one side of the Man Overboard wheel:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTurn dial on wheel to match vessel's current heading\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli data-mce-fragment=\"1\"\u003eTurn helm hard to port until compass heading has changed  60 degrees.
