I always have the throwable ondeck w/ a line attached...along with the right number and sizes of jackets. I added a very small set of weights to the throwable to increase the "toss" distance.
Do I get a "Gold Star"
PS... it makes it easier to toss a line to a boat that needs a tow without having to get too close in rough water.
