only 27 min. to reply, you really don't have a life. Get up outa that chair, go to the front door and have a look out there, that's where you will find a life.
Cabinboy, there is nothing that anyone can tell you, you know it all. You are the best you can be. Sad isn't it, when you think about it.
I gave you no details on my experience because I don't respect you, and you are not worthy of a real conversation on the subject, and I have been just sticking to calling out your poor character to all because you finally said more than I could take. My posts aren't really about the subject of boating safety, it's obvious that one can find a wealth of knowledge on-line for that topic, my posts are about you as a person of limited stature and poor moral judgement.
There are a few ways one could approach this tragedy. You have chosen to say these people deserved to die at sea, and look up every way they could have avoided the situation and profusely disrespected their lives while doing so.
On the fishing forums, where people who's lives are on the water, people have been sharing ways on how to survive when in a situation like that, all knowing that this could happen to anyone of us that venture out there. They all agree things could have been done differently, learned from it, and moved on, they know there are many other things that could have gotten those guys into the same predicament. Battery, bilge pump, de lamination, hull strike, wiring, rogue wave, even a spun prop, to just name a few. That's just a few for a vessel of that size and engine type.
Your small mind just wants to disgrace the dead, and try to look cool doing it, by posting all the new things you have learned about boating safety. You are the coolest dude out there. Now put your avatar back up of you on your high horse for all to see again.
