Don't know how it will work in a rescue scenario, but for lunch I can see
only benefits.  For natural functions I doubt; it is still some acrobatics
with only one and such a small outrigger. It won't flip over but might tilt
enough to make you lose a balance and fall overboard, or even worse - to
point those functions in unwanted direction.
