2 stranded guys on Isla Guardia?


anyone else see the show on Discovery channel last night about the 2 guys who were catamaraning off BOLA and got into a storm and stuck no food water 4 days before rescue?

wonder who the mex panga fishermen were that happened along and saved their tocino?

pretty interesting show. very lucky pair.

I caught the second half... never mentioned which island in that part. Thought it was interesting that they filmed the re-inactment at La Gringa with lots of shots of Smith Island in the background!

When did this happen, and if recently (past 3 years) why no mention here or did I just miss it?

I saw it also, I was also wondering when it happened (never mentioned in program) I found it very interesting that they said that at first the fishermen were very leary about coming into help (actually, I find that REALLY HARD TO BELIEVE!) More drama to make the story better? :rolleyes:

If anybody has more info. of the actual facts, I'd really like to hear more.
