great white Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 A really sad event. Perhaps when we are out there next time we will all look at our safety equipment and where it is stored. I believe Eddy may have got trapped while trying to get his lifejackets out for himself and his crew. My thoughts and best wishes to his family and friends Charlie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newboy Posted September 9, 2005 Report Share Posted September 9, 2005 Maybe we should all store our safty equipments (flares, handheld vhf, etc) on deck while we are out at sea?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
