“...a well-placed S.O.S. is not only a Hollywood cliche.”
I read this same thought, pretty much, in a NY Times story about an older woman who died hiking the Appalachian trail. She made many mistakes, even though she was an experienced hiker. She was hiking alone, first off, choosing to continue on after her partner had to abandon the journey. It was downhill from there (no pun intended!).
And the piece also said that while she made a camp and carried on for a while, she never made any distress sign that would be visible from the air.
So, yeah, you should find a way to do this if you are ever lost in the wilderness.

I wish there was more information about the island they were stuck on. Did it have fresh water or fruit. Anything that would suggest how long someone could survive there.
At least she could cook.
The weather started getting rough, the tiny ship was tossed....

Now That is Good ... I think it was a Call Out for a Good Divorce Lawyer and she was speaking about him, while he was asleep.
The fine print on that message would be entertaining... especially noteworthy where she placed the message... it could be an ad for Condoms or any other sort of Birth Control measure.
He is a loser or she is pissed off (maybe both) sucks to be him.
“If you were on a deserted island with a teenage Brooke Shields, would you want to be rescued?”
Yes.
Well, yeah, YOU would. :-P
