Default Re: Skills to help survival

If you find yourself in the middle of the ocean on what ever raft you have made and have no food or fresh water, then you are either stupid or dead.
NEVER drink salt water to try and survive......

salt water can be handled by the body for a long time with little adverse side effects ..important is to take only small sips but all the time..

the oceans have a lot of food to offer.. how to get it?

this book tells amazing tales of shipwrecks who have survived up to months some of them had not much more than their pants, shirt and a boat..
and a fighting spirit..
