How To Survive 438 Days Lost in the Pacific

Just a few days ago a Mexican tuna boat rescued an Australian man after his damaged catamaran had been lost in the Pacific Ocean for 3 months.

But that’s not the story we’re telling today.

 

In 2012, two men left the Pacific coast of Mexico in a small fishing boat, hoping to have a successful catch and bring some much-needed money home.

Only one made it back to the shore alive. That shore was in the Marshall Islands, over 5000 miles away, and he was on that boat for 438 days.
