I have posted the following several times: "Sailors, there is a reason it is
called a boom.  When you hear the boom and go overboard you may not be
conscious.  Will you have on a working PFD (personal floatation device)?"  
Paraphrased from Harmon Heed

The latest Sailnet newsletter as just updated a article worth seeing:

Has anybody not hit the boom?  Has anybody done an unintentional jibe?  The
Rhodes list does not want #17...
