After discussing this with my wife, her take on it was that the blond enticed the other woman (non sailor) into taking the voyage with the notion of a romantic escape. When it turned out to be somewhat different than all fun and relaxation, the communication devices went inoperative and the boat became mysteriously un-sailable (rigging damage, etc). So in effect, a kidnapping. I think when authorities start interviewing both parties separately, the non-sailor may not have the same enthusiasm about returning to sea with Ms. Appel in the future. And as with most everything, my wife’s intuition about being trapped on a boat would be spot on. She’s certainly felt that way on our boat before (seasick, 3 months pregnant, in 4-6’ quartering seas..”It’s OK honey, it will just be for a couple more hours..”).

I was at the dentist today and when I mentioned I'm into sailing, the dental hygienist asked if I had heard of the two lost sailors. And that apparently they had some electronic gizmo ("epirb" I said). When your dental hygienist has heard of them but probably never heard of Clipper, America's Cup, or Slocum, it's definitely a bit ridiculous (how easily manipulated the media and public attention are).
