Find the dry green notebook, a single line written - "Day one. Mast gone. I am alive." - then 96 blank pages: how does a complete nine-day survival log vanish while the owner is recovered alive six miles offshore? What happened to the missing entries and who found the notebook upright in a tidal mud flat?
In this episode, we follow the chain from discovery to rescue: a birdwatcher finds the notebook at Galvez Inlet, it is logged into evidence, and a search-and-rescue coordinator reads that lone sentence and understands its link to a man recovered after nine days adrift. How did a seasoned sailor keep a spoken dead-reckoning log for nine days while the physical pages remained blank?
Person: Russell Moore
Location: Galvez Inlet, Florida
Date: December 6-19 (departure December 7; discovery December 19)
Event: Nine days adrift after mast failure and life raft deployment
Status: Notebook logged into evidence and linked to rescued survivor
- The notebook was found at 7:52 AM on December 19 by birdwatcher Cynthia Snyder on a mud flat at Galvez Inlet.
- The first line written in the green spiral notebook reads: "Day one. Mast gone. I am alive." and the following 96 pages were blank.
- The notebook was logged into evidence by noon on the day it was found and routed to the Tampa Search and Rescue office by early afternoon.
- Russell Moore, age 63, departed Osprey marina at 6:00 AM on December 7 aboard the 31-foot Catalina sloop Lena Marie.
- The life raft was deployed at approximately 4:15 AM on December 9 after the lower shroud chainplate failed and the mast came down; Russell had six energy bars and four liters of water.
