The most dangerous thing to a ship at sea is fire. With all the improvements in engineering, design and construction of ships today the threat has certainly been lessened but is still there. Now we have the threat of terrorism to contend with. So, lifeboat drill is just as important now as it was years ago.


I personally don't care a hoot if Melissa goes to lifeboat drill or not but to go to the trouble of looking up the info. she posted, posting it in numerous places and possibly adding something to it seems like nothing short of enticing others to ignore something that could very well affect other peoples lives.

Please, stay in your cabin for the few minutes it takes if thats what you want but don't encourage others to do the same. But when and if a real emergency occurs, don't try to be the first in line at the life boat.

Sorry, have to sign off and get ready for my cruise. Oh yes, I will attend my 25 th boat drill.
