Thrown off the Boat
Talk about lucky. A couple were thrown off their boat (no life jackets) and treaded water for 14 hours until the were rescued by some passing fishermen.
Florida couple rescued after treading water for 14 hours, authorities say | Fox News
No details on how they both landed in the water. But, certainly makes the case for always wearing a lifejacket.
