Hi Adele---That was one heck of a night, wasn't it? I will never forget us hearing her call for help and I know you won't either. We were all very very happy to have found BOTH of them ALIVE. Up to that point there had not been many.

 

Hi Cheryl, you are so right on never forgetting. :(

whw is correct. They were listening for any sound that could mean "I am here - help." It was very intense and it was the crys from one of the people who went overboard that led to the rescue. They were both very lucky people. She was a swimming instructor (I believe) and treaded water for at least 5 hours. He was military and knew what to do with his clothing to keep himself afloat.

 

Thank you both for your explanation.

 

Ricki
