  CFCC Marine Tech students prepare for the unthinkable  Cape
Fear Community College Marine Technology students train for many
situations. Tuesday, they learned what to do if the unthinkable
happens at sea. The students deployed their life raft as part of
their Boat Handling and Seamenship course. The raft holds 25
people and it comes with every thing you would need to survive
if something happen out on the water. "Those two 25 person rafts
are ready to go, we never needed them in nearly 400 voyages that
we've taken, we pray we never will need them but they're ready
to go in the unlikely event that we do need them,” said marine
technology instructor Steve Beuth. The class also put on their
inflatable immersion suits and did water training.
