Raven,

I appreciate your questions. I am planning in refitting the boat this winter and I will always wear my PFD from now on. I posted this story after thinking it over not so much as a warning but because it was so sureal. I never really felt that I was going to drown, I felt more like what's next. I guess if a few things happen differently I would have been in the water. However I think all of us have been faced with that situation one time or another. Actually it was my dad who went through the event with me and pointed out all the life threatening issues. I repsect his views as he is a world class mariner.(see above). I really appreciate the posts above and hope you would find my story a good read and a lesson on how its not one big thing that gets you but a series of little things which by themselves seem no big deal but grouped together can be deadly.
