Another thing that went wrong between the boat tilting and the skiff sinking was that he couldn't start the boat's engine.
And in the end he was saved by a device he didn't know had activated and whose batteries he hadn't checked in years.
But yeah, doing enough of the right things at the right time probably saved him.

- megablast 6y agoNo one is checking your route batteries, that’s on you. You don’t have to have one. The battery lasts about 10 years though.
