It’s a bit of a long read,
but is well written and educational.

This is a very good blog piece by someone who knows a lot about ocean sailing. The women lied.

And, per the article, the only food
they said they ate would have left them dead
long before five months.

A broken mast looks like this
Here is a photo of a single-hander (one person) who even after being dis-masted, jury rigged a sail and made it to his destination port. Alone.
I don't want to know the story of these two....whatever.

Long read but laced with humor thanks to the author’s attitude. I definitely agree that the original story is so full of holes it doesn’t float.

Their intent was to be offered a movie deal for the “story”.

Wasn’t one of them a past reality show contestant?

But they were too stupid to realize how stupid their fake story was.

He reminds me of the guy who wrote The Martian, which was turned into a recent movie. He is meticulous, granular, and entertaining.
To: sparklite2
They probably thought they would find fame, a book deal and maybe even a movie!

So only one of them knew the slightest bit of anything about sailing, boats, and oceans... just enough to be dangerous. The other knew less than nothing and had never been on a sailboat.
They are both lunatics as well as liars. Whatever they really did, they are nuts.

Appel has been living on the boat for two years.
You don't have to sail. The boat has engines.

Which one is the "man" and which one is the "woman" ?
The blond looks pretty masculine, but the darker one isn't exactly a "femme". Carpet munchers, no doubt.
