Additional news coverage of rescue. It is sad that one of the crew died even though a survival suit was donned. These suits should keep the head above water face up. It is possible that the suit wasn't donned correctly under the pressure of the moment (understandable). Practicing survival suit donning is one of the things done by every crew member during abandon ship drills on commercial ships.
