概要
A single white child-sized sneaker was nailed through the toe and pinned to buoy number eleven, bleached by salt and impossible to ignore - yet that shoe belonged to a four-year-old who vanished with his grandmother on a ketch that sank seventy nautical miles away. How did one piece of equipment send rescuers searching the wrong ocean and nearly doom two lives?
In this episode, we tell the sequence of events on board the Aldine Cross from departure to sinking, the safety kit and decisions made, and the malfunction that redirected the initial search - could a latching EPIRB fix and a pinned shoe really change everything?
Person: Marilyn Kowalski
Person: Noah Kowalski-Pratt
Vessel: Aldine Cross
Date: August 2-4, 2019
Location: Diamond Shoals / approximately seventy nautical miles southeast of the buoy
- The sneaker was white canvas, child-sized, and appeared nailed through the toe box to buoy number eleven.
- Marilyn owned the 38-foot wooden ketch Aldine Cross and had run it out of Oriental, North Carolina, for seven years.
- The automatic EPIRB activated at 4:22 AM on August 4, 2019, transmitting a latched GPS fix about thirty miles east-northeast of Diamond Shoals.
- The Aldine Cross sank in approximately sixty feet of water with the boom still cocked across the cockpit.
- Marilyn made the final waterproof logbook entry at 7:09 AM on August 4, 2019: "Noah up. Deploying raft."
