In situations like that you do the best you can.

Just accept it and don't worry about the "what ifs".
They will drive you nuts.

Ya done good, John.

Yup... that's all you can do. Tragic outcome.

One guy makes a mistake that costs him his life as well as some property
damage and this is somehow more tragic than dozens lost off of Sierra
Leone?
I read the "poor poeple are perfectly happy" bull**** on the other
thread. Apparently not if they'll go to those lengths to get a better
life. Like those "perfectly happy" Cubans that die trying to make the
passage to Florida.
What are we really crying about here? The loss of dockage?


I wasn't making any judgement call and didn't participate in the other
thread.

snippedNot pinging on you Jon just wondering about the focus of the
majorities
empathy. Should have picked a better spot to respond. Sorry snipped

I did not notice any minority aspect of it. As I noted earlier, this
brought back memories for me that I would rather forget, although they
probably help me remember to always be careful with gasoline. No
apology required.

take care . . .

Default Boat Fire - Lessons to consider

I used to sail a lot on a boat with an old Atomic 4. We were really, really
careful, especially during fueling.
