Open ocean is still a bad idea for lots of reasons, there’s little room for navigation equipment or food or water or emergency supplies or a way to dry off and get warm… But they seal up pretty well so you won’t sink and rolling upright is a pretty basic skill.

Huh, TIL. I wouldn’t want to be on a craft that small in the ocean.
