Safer ..... yes no doubt, but like sailing solo across an ocean, part of the human spirit.
Snow skiing.....now that’s more dangerous in my experience. Large group of family and everyone’s been injured on the slopes, either from wipe outs , or other smashing into them.
I’ve seen people hurt from the chair lifts too.
The point ..... as a percentage, I bet snow skiing accounts for many more injuries per person
than fishing ocean alone, but it’s just viewed differently .
I’m humble to the power and risks at sea......taken in context of life overall.
