My first reaction here is how many of you have " I would have done this " attitude. Fortunately, none of us have been in this position and I am glad we haven't. There are many people that overnight in the ocean, I would not be one, but there are plenty. So why is he a fool for doing so. We should be thankful a fellow boater was saved from demise. Why do we 2nd guess the condition of his boat, because it 20 plus years old, bad reason. We all know maintenance is key, but have you never had something go wrong while out on your boat. Be it 1 mile from the marina or 100 miles, sh** happens. Rant over.
Well stated!
There is a lot we don't know about the captain, the boat, and the situation. Lets be thankful he survived.
