Coastguard Expert Analysis:
•The Basic Supplies Needed When People Are Stranded In Mid-
Ocean Are Articles To Attract Attention & Aid For Survival Until
Recue Help Arrives.
• Articles For Navigation Are Of Little Importance. Even If The
Life Raft Made It To Land It Would Be Impossible To Store
Enough Food and Water To Survive For That Amount Of Time.
•Most Rescues Occur Within The First 36 Hours.

built upon and their weaknesses
compensated for. In the fertile soil of
