The Notebook That Washed Ashore Before She Was Rescued

Salt-warped cardboard, fifty-one days of blue ballpoint entries, and a final date stamped three weeks in the future: a notebook found on August 14 at Kettering Flats Wildlife Preserve reactivated a Coast Guard search that had been suspended 24 days earlier. How could a log written at sea arrive on shore before the woman who wrote it was rescued?

In this episode, we follow the timeline from a solo ocean crossing that began June 23 to the storm that crippled the sailboat on July 9, the suspension of the search on July 21, and the notebook’s discovery on August 14 - and ask whether an unread GPS and a mysterious current can rewrite what "presumed lost at sea" means.

Person: Marilyn Taylor
Date: June 23, 2019 (departure); July 9, 2019 (mast failure); July 21, 2019 (search suspended); August 14, 2019 (notebook found)
Location: Kettering Flats Wildlife Preserve, two miles north of Sugarport, Georgia (where notebook was found)
Vessel: Perdita, 38 feet, full keel, built late 1980s
