Watching 'Seaside Rescue' on TV a large proportion of the rescued seem
to have brought their trouble on themselves (and the same seems to apply
to many of the serious inland waterways incidents reported). It could be
argued that such people should be charged the costs of their rescue -
though I have seen it suggested that this would put people off asking
for help - as sometimes happens with marine salvage. What are your
thoughts?
