Default Dive Boat Tragedy

So I'm sure most of you have already heard about the horrible accident in CA over the weekend.
https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...-cruz-n1049016

While looking at a picture of the boat it reminds me of many of the northeast party boats that run offshore trips.

This made me think..... what would happen if there was a fire in the cabin while everyone was sleeping in the bunks (way out or way in)? How do you get out? I have fished at least a half dozen different boats that had bunks downstairs and I can't remember one having an alternate exit.

I am not posting this to scare anyone or to discourage anyone from going, but with the offshore chunking season upon us, Take a look around when you are setting up your bunk for an alternate means of egress.
