概要
The first image is a yellow legal pad sealed in a zip-lock bag, handwriting still crisp after eleven days at sea - the note simply said "I'm fine." How did a fifty-two-year-old liveaboard leave a single, intact message that would travel one way while he swam the other, and why was the search looking in completely the wrong place?
In this episode, we follow the sequence of events from the June 3 departure and the last confirmed sighting on June 4, through the squall on June 5 that sank the Nora Jean, to the discovery of the life raft on June 14 - and we ask how a routine float plan and a sailor's small, methodical choices changed everything.
Person: Stanley Parker
Age: 52
Vessel: 38-foot sloop Nora Jean
Departure Date: June 3, 2019
Discovery Date: June 14, 2019
- The Nora Jean was purchased in 2014 for $41,000 and kept at Slip Twenty-Two in Palmetto marina.
- A photograph on June 4 showed the Nora Jean at the fuel dock on Big Pine Key, Bogie Channel - the last confirmed sighting.
- On the night of June 5, wind gusts reached 51 knots and the forestay fitting failed, causing the mast to come down.
- Stanley sealed a 40-sheet yellow legal pad inside a 2-gallon zip-lock bag and stowed it under the stern boarding platform before the boat sank.
- Bird photographer Carol West found an orange life raft in the mangrove fringe of Morro Cay at 5:47 AM on June 14 and called the Coast Guard.
