Yeah, I guess. Still, what would happen if you slipped off the dock at night or over the rail when no one was looking? It would be horrible to drown 10 feet from shore.
I took one of those coolio whale watching tours while I was there. Those boats do get you to the middle of bloody nowhere right quick. Once the coat disappears, where would you swim to?
Relatedly, I have heard that crab boats are the most lethal place to work. I guess if the lines are going down with the traps and you get tangled in the line, well, you're going down too. Damn.
ChadTower:
Guys do drown under the docks. Up in NS, though, even a strong swimmer can drown that close. The tide is that strong.
This is why true seamen don't hang around the water alone if they can avoid it. They go in pairs or more.
Zakk:
You got me hungry Chad, check out the 'last meal' thread. :)
ChadTower:
I said seamen and he got hungry.
:-X
fredster:
Do you have any idea how cold that water is there? It's not like a wonderful swim in a pool. They have what, 30 seconds to hypothermia?
