Rescuing Passengers Who Went Overboard Isn’t Simple
It’s never good when a passenger goes overboard, especially in rough seas. That’s why it’s important to know what to do. If someone goes overboard during a cruise, you might see crew members or other passengers throwing stuff over the side in order to mark where they are in the water.
It might seem like a simple task to remember where someone went overboard, but it’s actually extremely difficult.There are no landmarks in the ocean, meaning your brain doesn’t have anything to refer to when trying to locate an overboard passenger from the top of a very high cruise ship.
