Boots that float (Even slightly buoyant) should be left on in the event of an MOB. Water in the boot is not heavier than water outside the boot… Even if they fill with water they will help keep you harm and afloat.

That was an educational lecture and demonstration of how to dress up for actual cold weather. I imagine that the strategy Steve described most likely works on cold weather land activities, and not just at sea.

Cool vest, but I'd really prefer that yellow buckle be made of some kind of metal, or at least advertised as fiber reinforced.

From about 17:50 to 19:00 Steve is "fighting" the boat with the rudder to counter the bow's natural tendency to describe circles in the air.
A good helmsman learns to minimize rudder usage. Helm pressure always generates drag which reduces boat speed.
Instead of fighting the boat's natural movements on the waves, try to keep the rudder more or less fixed while letting the bow "circle" around your desired heading.
Ideally, the helmsman is always trying to find the helm position that keeps the boat pointing to the right place IN AVERAGE.
In other words, let the boat move in the water, keep the helm as fixed as possible.

Steve, just found your channel. Fascinating is not the right word. Have to ask. The cockpit cover seems temporary and not quite the same build as the rest of the boat. Correct / incorrect? Cool to see pics of RI. Grew up in Warwick, now live in St. Louis.
