I see, this is a provisioning thread. Now *that* was funny For another chuckle read http://www.stormy.ca/marine/nancy_bell.html Small crews work better because their is a lower incidence of cannibalism. Too bad they didn't know this on the Essex. Too bad they didn't save one of the whales they killed. It happens on land too, ever heard of the Donner Party? What would you have chosen. To go to sea and face starvation or stay on a resourse poor island? I think I would have stayed on the island, but then I have knowledge of a few tricks that probably hadn't been invented then. It would have been difficult to survive there, but better odds than in a big open rowboat with a bunch of cannibals. Fresh Breezes- Doug King |
