Something we all need to think more about...

About that war on Christmas, "It's a Wonderful Life" holiday (isn't it?) and the perpetual fear machine goes on and on and on and...

The last couple of weeks I've been witnessing the slow agonizing death of a boat that ran aground and it has been a somewhat thought-provoking experience.

I expect I'll write more about it later but the most obvious lesson is that, these days more than ever, in spite of such things as towing services, marine professionals, and government agencies that if you get into trouble on a boat you're really on your own...

The bottom line is that no one really cares and all of those in the aforementioned safety net don't care at all (well except for whatever money they can bleed from the situation) and if you need to save your boat it really is up to you to make it happen.
