A Hand Rises From the Water: The Rescue of Edward Simmons

A hand resting palm-up above a life raft, two hundred yards offshore and seen from sixty feet up a tower - that image collapsed twenty-two minutes of uncertainty into a single question: was the person alive? The raft held a man who had been at sea for eleven days, with a search that had covered the wrong coordinates and stopped after seventy-two hours; how did he survive when systems failed?
In this episode, we tell the sequence of events that led to Edward Simmons being found alive after eleven days at sea, and the key decisions and equipment failures that preceded his loss and rescue. What combination of human choices, expired equipment, and chance left his name to be found by a researcher before his body could speak for him?
Person: Edward Simmons
Age: 46
Date of loss: March 4, 2017
Duration adrift: 11 days
Search duration before shutdown: 72 hours
- The sighting was made by Philip Carlson from a utility tower sixty feet above ground, two hundred yards from shore.
- The raft was wedged between two rock pilings at the waterline above Anchor Cove near Wellport.
- Edward’s EPIRB had expired in November 2016 and was not renewed for four months.
- The life raft purchased in Crescent City originated from a 2014 lot and passed through at least two intermediate sales before arriving at the surplus store.
- Edward’s workboat capsized in a turbonada on the morning of March 4, 2017, and overturned in less than ninety seconds.
