This is the problem with boats, if it sinks in the middle of a large body of water, and no one else is near, you die.

I thought there are usually backup ropes.

And yes, It is sad =^(

usually why ships are stacked with lifejackets, flotation devices, and blow up boats or dingys.

That's why it says there are 22 dead, not 73. Even Macedonia thinks ahead sometimes. xD
