Yelp...even the best can sink...look at the titanic Luckly you, clawed your way aboard one of the lifeboats. Now you must take command and and navigate your boat back to land. The boat that saves you after the steel boat failed and sank is made of what material? Inferior plastic, rubber or fiberglass. If plastic, rubber and fiberglass are so inferior, then why aren't the lifeboats made of steel? Seems like its always those boats made from "inferior" materials are what you can depend on to save your life when the steel boat fails. What is the CG cutter that's about to rescue you made of?

Scotty, no USCG ship, boat, or plane is coming. They mis-understood the maday for another commerical for the Pirates of the Carribean. How can you use what you have left to navigate to save yourself?
