Appel and Tasha Fuiaba, both from Honolulu, had set sail for the Polynesian island of Tahiti in the spring. But their boat's engine died in May after a bout of inclement weather. They pressed on, hoping to make it to land by sail, the Navy said. But they soon found themselves lost. Their distress signals went unanswered for months.
Did they have power for EPIRB but not for GPS? And no knowledge of nonelectronic navigation?
