438 Days Lost At Sea
Description
Welcome to When It Goes Wrong, the podcast about disasters, accidents and when things fall apart. On this episode I will be discussing the case of Jose Salvador Alvarenga, a man whose boat was caught in a storm that resulted in him being adrift in the Pacific ocean for 438 days until he washed up on shore in the Marshall Islands.
