There is an old saying that "you always step up into a liferaft" . In
otherwords dont get off the boat untill you are sure its going down.


In this case the Coast Gaurd had ordered them off the boat but they had
made
a mayday call and had no idea what to do.


Hmm.. sounds like it was Pan Pan situation not a mayday.
