Seems IIRC fire fighting is on the exam, but I never sat for anything less than a 100 T. Joe -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Joe" wrote in message ups.com... Capt. JG wrote: I think what he was trying to ask was what is the next leading cause of death after deaths caused by sinking. But, that's just a guess. It was a trick and well worded question, you failed BTW..and you are suppose to have a ticket. One can figure all things associated with drowning fits in the causes of death from sinking...simple logic. Same cause, sinking. Fire is next. Fiberglass burns like oil soaked rags once it get going. And that black smoke...man what a danger. Joe -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com "Charlie Morgan" wrote in message ... On 28 Jul 2006 12:30:22 -0700, "Joe" wrote: Sterling Keays wrote: FIRE !! Well done Sterling! you get 8 ASA points for that one. Except he's completely WRONG! You asked what was the most deadly AFTER sinking. Fires on board causing loss of life are BEFORE sinking on the list of what kills people at sea. And you are a lubberly idiot if you think you can't die from a fire on a steel hulled boat. CWM |
