Re: Miraculous rescue 86 miles offshore
I have to ask what on earth was this guy doing out that far ...86 miles...unless you are fishing....no point in being out there..... and he left at 4 pm on a Friday....seems quite late for a joy ride...he was not on any kind of fishing boat...more like some kind of cabin cruiser.....

Nonetheless, he managed to cling to the bowsprit of his partially sunk boat...

Amazing, truly amazing !!!
