Default Re: Floatation

Capt Reality here...
If I am out in my boat, and I hit something, and it turtles, but stays up for 4-8 hours, great. Very few boats of this size sink like a rock. The gas tank alone, has a huge amount of bouancy associated with it, and the liner in these boats is almost a second hull. I have an epirb and a satilite radio in my it's gone horribly wrong bag, and they should be able to fish me out of the water before the boat sinks. In most cases, your going to die of hypothermia/exposure, before that boat is going to sink. If I was going to add something, go with a portable inflatable life raft to keep me out of the water, not foam.
