Re: [SCOW] Interesting report on dinghy entrapment

Julian - thank you so much for sharing this important study with SCOW members. I think SCOW should consider acquiring and requiring the use of the masthead floatation device (the mainsail head slip-on bouyancy device or "floatie") on the Scots. The cost is minimal compared to potential crew injury, loss of a life, or damage to boat/sails occasioned by turtling in our sailing area. It may be time to create an appointed "Safety Officer" position and/or "Safety Committee" for the Club, too. Jan Earle
