Letter Re: An Amazing Tale of Survival: Nine Months Adrift in the Pacific

James Wesley Rawles August 21, 2006 August 21, 2006

Dear Jim,
I think this would be a good story to link to on SurvivalBlog. Three fishermen survived on a 25 foot boat for nine months at sea, doing drastic things to ensure their survival. Two of the men on the boat died because they didn’t have the will to live (there were originally five on the boat.) As a sea kayaker who takes safety very seriously, it is a sobering story. Take care, – C.R.
