A rowing boat lost at sea in the Atlantic Ocean was finally found three years later in France.
The Mobile-based vessel capsized in 2022 with four military veterans on-board. They were racing in the ‘World’s Toughest Row’ competition.
The weather capsized their boat, forcing them onto the spare life boat until they could be rescued.
The four-man, Air Force veteran crew rowing for the nonprofit based Fight Oar Die saw their journey cut short because of a winter storm in the Atlantic.
Bryant Knight, co founder and president of Fight Oar Die said, “They had a capsize in the middle of the night. They were unable to upright the boat and so they deployed their life raft and abandoned ship and spent about 18 hours in a life raft before rescue by a freight liner that was coming from South Africa.”
