Context paragraphs:
Man Overboard! (Freeman Wills Crofts novel): Man Overboard!  (also known as Cold-Blooded Murder) is a detective novel by Freeman Wills Crofts, first published in 1936.  It is the fifteenth novel in the Inspector French series.  The book is set largely in Northern Ireland, and re-uses two of the characters from the earlier novel "Sir John Magill's Last Journey" (1930) which was set in the same country.  As a MacGuffin, the novel centres on a supposedly newly discovered (though possibly fraudulent) reversible chemical process that converts petrol into an inert form which is much safer for transport and storage.  The potential commercial value of this discovery leads to intrigue, theft and murder, with everything finally solved by Inspector French after his usual dogged legwork and some flashes of inspiration.

Man Overboard (band): Man Overboard was an American pop punk band from Mt. Laurel and Williamstown, New Jersey that began in 2008.

Taking influence from such pop punk acts as Blink-182, Saves the Day and Taking Back Sunday, Man Overboard played a brand of upbeat and poppy pop punk with the emotion of 90s emo acts such as The Promise Ring.  The band was signed to Rise Records.  They are well known for their motto within the pop punk scene to "Defend Pop Punk".  On January 28, 2016 they announced a hiatus on their official website.

Man overboard: "Man overboard!"  is an exclamation given aboard a vessel to indicate that someone (not necessarily a "man" but historically one of the crewmen "manning" the vessel) has fallen off of the ship into the water and is in need of immediate rescue.  Whoever sees the person's fall is to shout, "Man overboard!"  and the call is then to be reported once by every crewmember within earshot, even if they have not seen the victim fall, until everyone on deck has heard and given the same call.  This ensures that all other crewmembers have been alerted to the situation and notifies the officers of the need to act immediately to save the victim.  Pointing continuously at the victim may aid the helmsman in approaching the victim.

Man overboard rescue turn: A man overboard rescue turn is a sailing maneuver usually implemented immediately upon learning of a man overboard.  To maneuver closer to the person's location, implementations of the principles described are: the quick turn (also known as the Q-turn or the figure eight turn), the Anderson turn, the Williamson turn, and the Scharnow turn.

MacGuffin: In fiction, a MacGuffin (sometimes McGuffin or maguffin) is a plot device in the form of some goal, desired object, or other motivator that the protagonist pursues, often with little or no narrative explanation.  The MacGuffin's importance to the plot is not the object itself, but rather its effect on the characters and their motivations.  The most common type of MacGuffin is a person, place, or thing (such as money or an object of value).  Other more abstract types include victory, glory, survival, power, love, or some unexplained driving force.
