BREAKING NEWS: Abbey Sunderland has been found alive on her boat in the Indian Ocean. The signal from her boat was spotted by a chartered Airbus A330 aircraft. She was able to communicate with the aircraft via VHF radio.
The boat is de-masted and unmaneuverable, but she has at least 30 days of food on board.
A fishing ship is approximately 27-hrs, away from her and is currently en route to her location.
This info was from a live news conference that was just broadcast on FOXX-11 News in LA.

She will always be a heroine in my mind, no matter what the outcome. Very glad she is alive, and I hope she is able to complete her voyage.
WOW! Thank God. I hope she doesn’t say, I’m ready to do it again.
