It seems like we all can learn lots from those who have gotten themselves out of messes.

Thing is there is no general magic bullet anymore; no stone set script to follow since all kites are different nowadays whereas before they were all the same , i.e. mechanism wise, safety wise , etc
Not only that but each situation is completely different; once you may be caught on a crabtrap, another your line snaps, your LE deflates, lines tangle, powerboat decides to cross at high speed between you and the kite across your lines, WIND DIES RIGHT IN FRONT OF THE BARGE! etc
My recc. would be to get intimately aware of all the peatures and safety systems on your particular kite + know their positives and minuses and how to act in an emergency ( for your particular case ). Seems to me thats a topic your instructor would want to cover with you but the only way he could do it correctly is by knowing which kind of kite you would end up using to begin with ( catch 22 ).
Oh. and don't hesitate, hesitation is the little killer
