4 knots in 30 days is 2880 nmiles.  Could reach civilization from most places 
in the Pacific....

Reliance on electronics only will leave you in deep....

 Yes, but the
 report in the UK Mail says that they had a mast problem, and
 could sail at 4-5 knots. I don’t see why that is a
 problem.  The real question is now they got “lost”.
  Did they have no navigational capability?  No solar or
 wind power?  Also, they lost their cell phone overboard the
 first day.  What use is a cell phone in the Pacific Ocean?
  Lots more to hear on this one.  Dave

 news tonight about a sailboat that was stranded in the
 Pacific for 5months after their engine broke down on an
 otherwise functional boat.  Apparently the crew survived as
 they had a water maker and a year’s supply of oatmeal. 
 Something not add up here?  And who really has a 1 year
 supply of oatmeal for two people and a dog?
