Some people are too stupid to appreciate a minimal risk situation yet probably expose their families to far greater risk when they are at the wheel of a car (unless they insist that they are one of the 99.9% of drivers that are above average). I suspect that a number are obsessed with the need to spend £1,000's on buying and servicing their liferafts yet skimp on engine maintenance or a rigging survey and probably completely miss the need to give a priority for certain items of safety kit and will only be happy when legislation is bought in to compel every watercraft to have a Liferaft. Rather scuppers the happy individuals that got afloat for £5,000 in this months YM!!
