I’ve used a spare jib halyard to hoist a small dink on a friend’s boat, and the spare halyard and spin pole to lift a heavy RIB and swing it aboard on another boat. Don’t see why you could not recover a MOB either.

We use a halyard and a cabin top winch. It's fairly simple. I've even done it by myself. Unless the wind is really honking, it's a simple matter to attach a halyard to the dinghy's bridle and hoist it high enough to clear the lifelines. We then lower it to the deck and strap it down. We also use a halyard and cabin top winch to put on or take off the dinghy's outboard. It's an early 80's 7 hp so it isn't exactly a lightweight. Don't see why you couldn't recover a MOB the same way. Dennis C. Touche' 35-1 #83 Mandeville, LA
