Default Man dies in capsizing

I had planned to be yelling very loudly when
I surfaced!


There's another thing I like to see tied off to the Sospenders....one of
those tiny little freon airhorns that are about the same size as the little
strobe light on it. Coughing and choking for air, it's really hard to
"yell loudly". Blow that little airhorn and everyone aboard is trying to
see what boat is running into them, looking around towards where you are
frantically waving your arms.

I think I've seen them in WalMart's boat department or bicycle department
for under $5. Shhhh....don't tell the Coasties that's where mine came
from, ok?
