Hi

This is the continuation of thread started on Aug.3.2005. Too many good
contributions to let it go.

Many interesting comments and hints; thank you.

Would like to post these questions based on all the prior responses:

1) Has anyone out there used , seen or had experiences with
"yachtsaver"airbags?
Manufacturer is out of business but the idea doesn't sound too bad? Any
Comments?

2) How much is the potential sinking of vessel on the mind of you the
owners?
Do you think a reasonable solution ( either refit or part of new boat)
would be welcome? It should affect
insurance premiums, right?
What's your feel?

May be I am a bit paranoid about hitting submerged log, halfsunk containers
and the like. But even if insurance may cover loss,can anyone guarantee
life(s)?
cheers mike
