Pacific cruisers take note, the consequences of piratical banking, and something from the global warming is a myth files...
With all this talk about safety of late as we come into the Let's-get-drunk-and-run-full-tilt-boogie-through-crowded-anchorages holiday (otherwise known as Memorial day) I've been reading the USCG statistics on safety (or lack of). It's interesting and needful reading.
The first thing that stands out to me is folks on cruising sailboats are pretty damn safe in a statiscal sense, powerboaters not so much.
Sadly, reading through the stats I could not help but realize that most of the people I personally know who have died or been injured on the water were killed in accidents that involved their dinghies rather than sailboats.
Just something to keep in mind...
