http://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-37203796 Two people have been rescued from an uninhabited Pacific island after a US Navy helicopter spotted their SOS sign. The pilots spotted the sign drawn into sand on East Fayu Island in Micronesia and alerted the US Coast Guard. It followed a week-long search for Linus and Sabina Jack, both in their 50s, who were reported missing when they failed to reach a nearby island. The couple left Weno Island with limited supplies and no emergency equipment, the Navy said. |

Great story, sail. Turns out they had been spotted by a ship, who alerted the Navy.

It has been a fantasy of mine to be stranded on a tropical island with a boatload of only good looking, heterosexual women....I would be careful that no SOS signs are made............

Irresponsible by that couple to bring themselves in that dangerous a situation. |
