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

    When the Mast Fell: Three Lost, One Woman, Four Days at Sea
    2026/09/11
    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.

  • The Nail and the Missing Shoe That Saved Two Lives Overboard

    The Nail and the Missing Shoe That Saved Two Lives Overboard
    2026/09/10
    The Nail and the Missing Shoe That Saved Two Lives Overboard

    A single child's white canvas sneaker, size five, bleached and nailed to a channel marker sixty miles from the nearest shipping lane, set off a Coast Guard search that would trace back ten days of small errors and one pair of decisions that saved two lives. What began with a fisherman hauling up an impossible shoe at 4:30 a.m. on August 9, 2003, became the center of the nine-day story of the Nomé Bravo-how did a nailed shoe become the clue to a survival at sea?

    In this episode, we tell the sequence of events from the Nomé Bravo's departure to the squall that capsized her, the automatic life raft, and the hours that followed; we follow the people involved and the decisions that put a six-year-old in the water holding a sailor's wrist-how did that wrist and one raft turn disaster into survival?

    Date: August 9, 2003
    Vessel: Nomé Bravo
    Person: Gary Reed
    Victim: Lily Selby, age 6
    Location: 60 miles southwest of the Marquesas Keys

    - A fisherman named Marvin Walker found a left canvas sneaker, size five, nailed with one carpenter's nail to a channel marker buoy at 4:30 a.m.
    - The Nomé Bravo was a thirty-eight-foot ketch with a four-person hydrostatic-release life raft that inflated on immersion.
    - The squall produced sustained winds estimated at 50 knots and shredded the mainsail from the second batten down.
    - At 11:47 PM the boat rolled ninety degrees to starboard, rolled again, and did not return, throwing Gary and Lily into the water.
    - Lily Selby had been wearing Payless white canvas sneakers bought three weeks earlier and identified later by her mother, Terri Selby.

  • How a Single Typo Left a Sailor Invisible at Sea for Nine Days

    How a Single Typo Left a Sailor Invisible at Sea for Nine Days
    2026/09/09
    How a Single Typo Left a Sailor Invisible at Sea for Nine Days

    A single wrong character in a fifteen-digit beacon code turned a full-scale rescue into a bureaucratic ghost story: Rhonda Stewart activated her EPIRB after her mast came down in 40-knot winds, yet her distress signal routed to another boat and the case was closed. How did one transposition error in position nine of a hex code make a prepared sailor effectively invisible for nine days?

    In this episode, we follow the timeline from the beacon found on Calhoun Key to the database transfer that sent the alert to the wrong vessel, and we map the procedural gaps that let a live distress signal be misattributed - could one verification step have changed everything?

    Person: Rhonda Stewart
    Date: July 3-July 14
    Location: 48 nautical miles southwest of the Dry Tortugas / Calhoun Key
    Vessel: Meridian Spur (42-foot sloop)
    Event: EPIRB activation with transposed character in position nine of a 15-character hex code

    - Rhonda departed Sarasota on July 3 at 1600 hours with eight days of provisions and 22 liters of fresh water.
    - At 0217 on July 5 Meridian Spur was 48 nautical miles southwest of the Dry Tortugas when wind logged 18 knots, then 52 knots four minutes later.
    - The mast came down and Rhonda cleared rigging by hand over 40 minutes in 40-knot winds and eight-foot seas, then activated the EPIRB.
    - A contractor entered the beacon’s 15-character hex code with a transposition error in the ninth position during a spring database transfer.
    - The mistaken code redirected the distress alert to Blue Advent, a 38-foot ketch registered to Stuart Nolan in Fort Myers, and the case was closed before AIS position cross-check completed.
