You do know the water is rather chilly in the N. Atlantic in

Yes - hence the point about using any available materials or
objects to make a raft or floation aid to stay above the water.

LOL! A raft wouldn't keep them warm.

Including ripping out any handy bathtubs...

No chance of swamping a bathtub, either. What a moron.

LOL yourself.

You'd beat your own mother for a chance to float on the last pile of
wood or in the only bathtub available if it meant saving your own hide.
