copy content in ssh Vim

I need to ssh to remote machine and edit in vim. Sometimes, I need to copy some back from the remote machine to local machine. Is there any easy way to do it?

What I want like this:

remote:  select a few lines in vim, and yank it in a register or something.
local:   put the content from remote machine into a local buffer.

you can open the remote file in your local vim(via scp), e.g.:

vim scp://youruser@remoteserver//path/to/yourfile
