Getting back into the boat: Hang some lines with clips off the side. But a ring on your BC (if it does not have one) and on your belt. Clip off your tank and take it off. Clip off your belt and take it off. Let them hang. Enter the boat (and now I'm assuming a 16ft Zodiac or smaller) with either a fin assisted pull up onto the gunwale or (I'm not kidding, it is actually quite easy) holding the lines on the side of the boat whilst facing away with the back of your head against the boat, flip your feet up and over while hanging on, you will find yourself kneeling in the boat facing out after having done what is a very controlled back somersault.
We generally try to anchor and leave someone in the boat. When that is impossible, we still anchor, but we check the anchor carefully.
