Description
What would you do if your boat sank in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean and you were left alone on a tiny inflatable raft?
In 1982, sailor Steven Callahan found himself trapped in one of the most terrifying survival situations imaginable.
After his boat sank during a journey across the Atlantic, he was left drifting alone in the vast ocean with limited food, water, and supplies.
With no engine, no way to control his direction, and no guarantee of rescue, Steven had to use his knowledge, creativity, and survival skills to stay alive.
For 76 days, he battled hunger, thirst, extreme weather, loneliness, and the constant fear of never being found. He collected rainwater, caught fish, repaired his damaged raft, and used every available resource to survive another day.
