Planning a 5-month roundtrip from Tacoma to Whittier this summer and I'm starting to list needed equipment. Just ordered my Vesper AIS upgrade.
Seattle Boat Show broadened my thinking a bit. It seems the cost of a 6-man coastal raft is about the same as six good exposure suits.
While I have made this passage before without suits nor raft, this time it is my boat and the responsibilities seem to be weighing a bit heavier. So, which? both? neither? Discuss.
I know the dinghy isn't a lifeboat, but I do in fact have an "unsinkable" Bullfrog. Does that affect your thinking?
