. . .The fact is that an eleven year old girl needlessly drowned. If the boat had been fitted with a mast float, she would still be alive, doing whatever 14 year old girls do.

And at 14 she would still be too young to do what she was doing!

. . .mast floats clearly save lives, with little downside, why aren't they used?


Because YOU aren't in charge !
