At the end of the day we all make some bad decisions and some good ones and the survivors are those that have a positive balance sheet.
There is an awfully long list of boats that have gone down/missing with the consequent loss of life of the people on board. The only logical conclusion must be that the conditions overcame the abilities of those aboard and the decision makers had a negative balance sheet.
So do we further conclude that they were were all ill-prepared/uninformed/unskilled?
Or do we conclude that Gene did enough to keep everybody alive despite the odds?
I conclude that Gene got it right, had a positive balance sheet and I would rather have been on his boat than any of those referred to above.
