Coconuts are loaded with fat, electrolytes, and water.

I think finding lime for the coconuts was the most difficult part of having to stay on the island.

Coconuts are very nutritious.

Bet they also ate sea creatures.

Sounds like the punchline of a “three Cubans walk into a bar” joke.

Were they trying to get to the US?

(And do we still have ‘wet foot, dry foot’; or did Clinton screw that, too?)

33 days is not a long time. The Average American can live off that fat alone.

Were there four people on the wrecked boat?

A three hour tour turns into 33 days.

I spent 3 days on a deserted island with nothing but coconuts, lobster and beer for nutrition.

Serious question:

Why would the United States Coast Guard be involved in a situation which is about three non-US citizens shipwrecked on a Bahamian Island?

Uninhabited? What do you call three Cubans?

Manhattan Island or Long Island?

Why would they leave Paradise for a hellhole like the U.S.?

I looked up the island on Bing Maps.

It is essentially a ten mile sandbar about 75 miles off Cuba's north central coast.

There are actually two sandbars about 1 mile apart. At its widest point, the island is only about 500 yards in width.

The aerial photograph shows a lot of greenery, but not enough detail to distinguish trees from basic ground cover.

Finding enough fresh water to drink would be serious hard work every day. You cannot really dig because the sand will just collapse in on itself. And, if you can dig more than a few feet deep, you will hit salt water intrusion.

Those folks would have had to crack open about 30 coconuts a day just to stay hydrated.

Are you suggesting that coconuts migrate?
