I hope with the help of forum members to get an insight into the impact that weather conditions would have on survivors who spent 12hrs in a Carley life raft in the English Channel in July 1944.
The RN rescue report gives the following information:
Wind NE force 4-5
Sea and swell 32
Sky overcast
Visibility-poor
Occupants were taking turns of being in the water for hours then sitting on the raft.
As always grateful for the help and advice of forum members.
