Cruising Couple Rescued on Last Day of Circumnavigation

By George Day · On June 21, 2018

This is a sad story that just goes to show you that no matter how much experience you have the sea can still dish up situations that are beyond your control. Check out this report of a couple’s rescue by reporter Lindsay Nadrich and watch the interview on KGW8 TV.

 

WARRENTON, Ore. — A husband and wife in their late 60s were rescued by the U.S. Coast Guard on Saturday after their sailboat flipped about 180 miles off the coast of Grays Harbor, Washington.

The couple, James and Joy Carey, bought their 46-foot boat 27 years ago to fulfill their dream of circumnagivating the globe. They were traveling from Hawaii to Bellingham, the last leg of a trip they started 17 years ago after their daughters were grown. Read more and watch interview.
