I remember the product. But my impression was always that it was INSIDE the
hull. I can just picture myself in a sinking situation (God forbid), I pull
the rip cord and *bang* this airbag from hell pins me to the cabin floor and
I wind up drowning in three inches of water while my boat floats along with
its positive bouyancy and waits to be rescued.
I think I'd rather just sink in style.
