Lost at Sea. American sailor Louis Jordan went missing in the sea for more than two months in 2015. He was found alive and well by a German ship, which took him from his small boat to safety. Jordan, aged 37, left Conway, South Carolina, on 23 January. He told his family that he was going on a fishing trip for a few days to ‘catch some really big fish’. His father called the police on 29 January, when he didn’t hear from his son. Jordan’s boat turned upside down in the night during the bad storm at the sea. The boat began filling with water but it turned over again so it didn’t sink and no more water got in. Jordan survived because he had quite a lot of food on his boat. It was also his home, so he had lots of clothes, tools and other equipment on board too. When there was no more food and water, he caught fish and collected as much rainwater as he could but he didn’t have enough. Jordan only drank about half a litre of water a day, which is just above the daily minimum needed to stay alive (300 ml–500 ml). But 66 days later, on 2 April, the German ship found him 320 km from the coast of North Carolina. Mr Jordan says that when he first saw the German ship, he waved his hands slowly to show them that he needed help.
