Getting Organized

  1. Step 1 Stay calm.
    Perhaps the most important thing to surviving a shipwreck is staying calm. This is even more important in the first chaotic moments in a tragedy at sea. If you don’t stay calm, you could put yourself in more risk.
    • If you find yourself panicking, tell yourself to relax and breathe deeply.
    • Think before you act. Don’t just run to the first life boat, or jump into the water at the first sight of danger. Consider all your options.

Warnings

  • If the inside of the ship is flooding quickly, do not inflate your life jacket until you are outside. Otherwise, you might float to the top and be trapped.
