When the Mast Fell: Three Lost, One Woman, Four Days at Sea

Fog, a grounded thirty-eight-foot cutter, and a mast that should never have come down: the Carissa Bell came ashore with navigation lights still burning and one survivor barely conscious while two crewmen had vanished into fifty-one-degree water. What combination of metal fatigue, gear failure, and cold-water survival turned a routine September passage into four days nobody ashore knew were being endured?
In this episode, we tell what the transcript records about the Carissa Bell’s final voyage: the crew, the failing forestay fitting, the night a mast fell, and the first forty minutes of search that ended with two men overboard. How did an unseen crack and one wrong carabiner setting cascade into a lost-at-sea emergency?
Date: September 19, 2011
Location: Tucket Flats, Gulf of Maine
Person: Gail Lewis (54), Phil Asher (61), Owen Vance (32)
Vessel: Carissa Bell, 38-foot fiberglass cutter, built 1989
Temperature: 51 degrees Fahrenheit (water at Pemaquid Point buoy)
- At 7:42 AM on September 19, a passerby saw the Carissa Bell grounded in 18 inches of water with navigation lights on and the mast missing.
- Gail Lewis was found conscious but barely, wearing a drysuit four sizes too large with cuffs sealed by electrical tape.
- Phil Asher and Owen Vance were not on board when rescuers arrived and were never found after going overboard.
- The diesel tank aboard the Carissa Bell was dry and the EPIRB transmitted a signal to the wrong place.
- The forestay fitting had a stress fracture present and propagating for at least two seasons, undetected until the mast fell.
