I feel so sorry for the families of the victims.

 

Had the missing woman been wearing a life jacket:

- she might have been recovered alive;

- even if found dead due to the nature of the accident, at least she would have been found by the rescue services. Imagine the anguish of the families not knowing.

- In the event of a person remaining missing at sea, the coroners will not release finances (mortgage, pension, endowments, etc) for 7 years, irrespective of will arrangements. The families will continue to suffer.

 

Remember - life jackets are USELESS, if not worn.

 

Am sorry if this is a little harsh, but it's reality.

 

Mike

Safety Officer
