5.0 out of 5 stars Very informative, February 6, 2009
By 
This review is from: Grab Bag Book:Your Ultimate Guide to Liferaft Survival (Paperback)
A good source of information if you're putting together a ditch bag. I had previously purchased another similiar book and put together a ditch bag. But this one gave me several more good ideas, and I added items to the bag. Course, there's no way you can get everything the book recc. into one ditch bag. I ened up with three seperate bags! And still didn't get everything in there the book lists. Also a good reference for proper procedure in a ditching... what to grab other than the raft and ditch bag. Beyond that, very good info on what to do when you're in the raft. I have the book itself in my ditch bag.
