"Had they not been able to locate us, we would have been dead within 24 hours."

In a briefing with the Coast Guard, Appel said she that did have the emergency 
beacon on board and that it was properly registered.
"We asked why during this course of time they did not activate the EPIRB," Tara 
Molle, Coast Guard spokeswoman Petty Office 2nd Class, told the AP. "She had 
stated they never felt like they were truly in distress, like in a 24-hour 
period they were going to die.”


“On their first day at sea, Appel said, a violent storm hit with waves as high 
as 50 feet.”
 ...
Appel and Fuiava also said they faced a tropical storm on their first night at 
sea on May 3. Records kept by the National Weather Service show no signs of 
such a storm around that time, according to the AP. The findings were confirmed 
by archived NASA satellite images.

4 knots in 30 days is 2880 nmiles.  Could reach civilization from most places

 Yes, but the
 report in the UK Mail says that they had a mast problem, and
 could sail at 4-5 knots. I don’t see why that is a
 problem.  The real question is now they got “lost”.
  Did they have no navigational capability?  No solar or
 wind power?  Also, they lost their cell phone overboard the
 first day.  What use is a cell phone in the Pacific Ocean?

I just saw a very short interview with the women on the news.  Apparently, they 
were swamped in a storm that washed the engine and damaged the rig.  No more 
info than that.   Although, both women looked healthy and not very distressed. 
They were found 900 miles off Japan. 
one statement I found really puzzling.  She said she was sure they would have 
died in the next 24 hours.  But they weren't emaciated at all.  You'd think of 
they were afraid of running out of food they would be rationing and very thin. 
My guess is they were writing their book and maybe embellishing the situation a

The hull of that boat looks just like the hull of the boat that that kid took

experienced ocean-crossing sailors (which these women were not).  The

But I am happy to report that both human and canine crew appear quite buff and 
dapper after the ordeal.  Also from photos in news the main was nicely flaked.

I thought it was rare for anyone to sail Hawaii to Tahiti because it was 2600 
miles upwind? And how did they keep the water maker running for 6 months with 
no engine power? I’d hate to try to make 5-6 gallons a day with one of those 
little pump style water makers they put into liferafts.

How do you get stranded on an "otherwise functional sailboat"? The engine is 
called auxiliary for a reason!!

 

Just asking.
