The moment a lineman stepped into a cattle pond and saw a faded orange vest, he assumed a dead calf-until the recorder around the man’s neck kept clicking and a voice answered. A 52-year-old marine electrician spent twenty days at sea, recorded almost every hour, and somehow washed up fourteen miles from the nearest salt water; how did a man with a VHF, backup GPS and a yellow Marantz recorder end up in a cattle pond with no waterway to the Gulf? What do those lost twenty days sound like?
In this episode, you will hear the sequence of events from departure to discovery as conveyed by the man who lived them, in his own recorded log entries. We trace the timeline from the September 29th departure through the rigging failure, the lost navigation, the shark encounters and the dwindling supplies, asking how drift, damage and decisions combined to produce a search corridor that never matched where he actually went.
Person: Gary O'Connor
Date of departure: September 29, 2011
Age: 52
Equipment: handheld VHF, backup GPS with shattered screen, Marantz voice recorder in yellow housing
Discovery: October 19, 2011, in a cattle pond fourteen miles from nearest salt water
- Gary recorded his first entry before the marina was out of sight, noting fuel level, wind direction and time.
- On approximately October 3, the forestay failed, the mast went over port, and the boom struck his left shoulder, rendering his left arm largely unusable.
- After the fall, Gary used bolt cutters from the starboard lazarette to free rigging one-handed and ran the engine for 22 hours until it stopped.
- He transmitted on VHF channel 16 for about two hours after the mast collapse and received no response.
- Gary was found alive on October 19, wearing an inflatable vest, with his Marantz recorder still running.
