A sharp lookout and quick action by the crew of a British yacht in the Gibraltar Strait saved the life of a motorboater who had leapt off his burning boat a few weeks ago. It goes to show that in this age of fly-by-wire button punching from beneath the shelter of the sprayhood a really good Mk 1 eyeball watch is indispensable.
Great story. That was one lucky guy.
Congrats for the British yacht crew, it isn't an easy job to rescue somebody from a burning boat.

Good to hear that the life of a motorboater was saved from death. He was so lucky because one of the crews saw him from his burning boat.

Tuck the seat cover through the crease of your seat and secure it on the backside.
