So they have her located on a dismasted boat. She’s okay. I figured she was all right when I learned that three EPIRBS had signaled and that two of them had to be manually turned on. If she had time to do that then she was not overwhelmed. Actually knowing the boat was merely dismasted and not sunk then she likely turned on all three.
... and sparing her parents a special kind of hell on earth, as well.
Your post and that article gave me hope. I went to bed not knowing and learned just before 7:00 a.m. this morning. What glorious news!! I really look forward to her return home here in SoCal.
