Not a sailor, but married to one.
That boat rides high in the water, if you look at the filth along the waterline where it evidently sat for several months. A years worth of food would weigh a lot.
The mast is intact.
The sails are furled and secured. Did a sheet break? A line? Why couldn’t they raise and control the sails?
A 50-footer berthed in Hawaii. Pricey boat; pricey mooring.
Now, as a woman who works with her hands and cannot keep long nails or a manicure: I see nice white nails on the blond.
I have spent 3 months at a time in the tropics in the South Pacific. I’m not blonde, but that woman does not have a 5-month tropical, on-the-water-tan. If she’s really fair, where is the 5 months of sunburn? The other woman tans. I can see the tan line where her sleeves end. She is also very light for 5 months on the water.
Neither of them show hair exposed for 5 months to salt water, sun and wind.
Stinks. 15-year-olds sail around the world alone and they can’t make a popular passage that takes 2 1/2 weeks? Did no cruisers see them?
agreed
Busted by you. Well done!
