Not to start an argument, beacuse I think both are important, but I know a couple of guys who survived in the 162 Qt igloos but got rescured because of the EPIRB. I think I recall rading that the average time betwen when the crew realizes something is wrong and the time the boat goes down is somethiing like between 5 and 10 minutes. Not a lot of time to blow up a raft.
