Gerry Shipley (still young and good looking) in his dinghy.  Close examination reveals that he is not very wet or cold.  This was because some of them without survival suits elected to inflate their Mae Wests and dinghies whilst still on deck, put the dinghies gently over the side and get into them VERY carefully.  Gerry recalls that Dougie the Boss, thought this was cheating, they thought it was sensible survival. - Feb57.                   (Thanks Gerry Shipley.)
