You need to read a little about the boats taht have survived storms
with severely injured people aboard...in one case without any
coachhouse left standing.


Yes and Rheinhold Messner dragged himself by his hands across a Himalayan
glacier for three days with frozen stumps for feet and went on to solo Mt
Everest and ski across Antarctica. Doug Scott downclimbed an 8,000 meter
Himalayan peak on his kness because of two broken legs. We shouldn't expect
anything less of Terry. Right.


I've sailed some 400 miles through a severe storm with a crew member
cocooned in bedding to help stop the jarring to a broken leg...he did
not have a twisted ankle.

BUT, YOU digress.........IF the boat is still afloat without
assistance...It was in all likelihood abandoned too soon.
