The Impossible 76-Day Survival in the Atlantic Ocean

In February 1982, Steven Callahan’s sailboat sank in the Atlantic Ocean, leaving him alone on a tiny inflatable life raft. With limited food, little fresh water and no way to call for help, he faced an ordeal that would last 76 days. The Impossible 76-Day Survival in the Atlantic Ocean To stay alive, Callahan collected rainwater, used solar stills to produce fresh water, caught fish with a spear and repeatedly repaired the damaged raft beneath him. Passing ships failed to see him, supplies began to disappear, and every day introduced another threat. This is the extraordinary true story of how one man survived for more than two months alone in the Atlantic—until a group of fishermen finally noticed the signs of life surrounding his raft.
