" I think you could argue the exact opposite. It's soft and no dangerous in itself. You can make all sorts of mistakes in a yacht or powerboat that would be fatal in a car or motorcycle. Short of being tucked up in bed I think the sea is about the safest place you can be! I disagree. I am a relatively new qualified coastal skipper and I am frequently surprised how quickly a sea will change from a benign environment to one that is dangerous and forbidding. In my short experience, you cannot take the sea for granted. In a car, you just pull into the next layby. Gavin Dan's a bul****ter. Ignore him |
