An Overturned Catamaran washed ashore with no sign of the Crew. They
found a sheet of paper with instruction on how to operate the
"Liferaft" No one could have survived that storm in a life raft.

check out the only way to get out of an upside cat on the beach.

Also, there are 3 mountain climbers missing on Mt Hood from back East.
It looks like all hope is gone for them. I hope not but it doesn't look
good. The weather has been to bad for the rescue crews to do their job.




The modern cats I've sailed have escape hatches on the inside (facing
hulls).
