    Should the raft not have deployed as soon as it hit the water?

    Is that not the gig with these things?

        Not on a 40ft long racing boat. The liferaft would be a little inflatable thing that needs taking out of the bag and dropping in the water like this:

        If the boat went over quickly and they were trapped inside the hull they would have had a job getting out and deploying it.

        While you're waiting, read the free novel we sent you. It's a Spanish story about a guy named 'Manual.'
