  • She Was Missing at Sea - Then a Wyoming Kitchen Window Told the Truth

    She Was Missing at Sea - Then a Wyoming Kitchen Window Told the Truth

    She Was Missing at Sea - Then a Wyoming Kitchen Window Told the Truth

    A propane canister in a Wyoming kitchen window broke a maritime mystery: a woman listed as missing at sea for eleven days was still alive, and the small red-valved camping canister visible from the street was the clue. How did a thirty-eight-foot sloop, a failed satellite update, and a single upright canister in a landlocked home link a drifting hull two hundred and ten miles southwest of the Mississippi Delta to a Wyoming house?

    In this episode, we follow the timeline from a January 14 meter-reader’s stop in Mineral Fork to the storm that crippled Jessica Evans’s boat and the Coast Guard search that went the wrong way; we trace the equipment she carried, the course changes she made, and the small domestic detail that ultimately reframed the search. What did that canister mean, and where was Jessica when someone finally noticed it?

    Person: Jessica Evans
    Date: January 3 (mast failure and EPIRB activation) and January 14 (meter-reader stop)
    Location: approximately 210 miles southwest of the Mississippi Delta; Mineral Fork, Wyoming
    Vessel: Interval, 38-foot sloop
    Item observed: single upright 16-ounce propane canister with red valve cap on kitchen counter

    - Jessica left Port Sulphur, Louisiana on December 8 with a thirty-day provisioning plan.
    - The mast folded against the starboard rail after a 14-foot wave struck at 2:17 a.m.; the rig went overboard around 3:00 a.m.
    - Jessica activated her EPIRB at 3:04 a.m., which Coast Guard New Orleans logged and used to start a search.
    - Interval carried a watermaker, EPIRB, handheld VHF, satellite communicator, and a ditch bag; a partial 16-ounce propane canister lived upright on the chart table.
    - On January 6 Jessica began rationing water with 23 liters remaining.

  • The Orange Suit on the Breakwater: She Walked Ashore, It Never Inflated

    The Orange Suit on the Breakwater: She Walked Ashore, It Never Inflated

    The Orange Suit on the Breakwater: She Walked Ashore, It Never Inflated

    An orange survival suit, dry on the outside and sealed with an unused CO2 cartridge, washed up twelve miles from the last known position after nine days at sea - but its owner had never put it on. What happened to Diane Webb, whose name was stenciled on the collar, and why did a suit that should have saved her arrive unused?

    In this episode, we tell the sequence of events from departure to the discovery on the east breakwater, laying out the actions, timings, and items recovered to ask whether the surviving evidence points to accident, mischance, or something else.

    Person: Diane Webb
    Date: December 10-19, 2011
    Location: east breakwater of Morrow Island; last known position offshore
    Vessel: Carla M, 42-foot fiberglass sloop
    Status: survival suit (WEBB - D) found sealed, dry, uninflated after nine days, CO2 cartridge intact

    - The suit floated against the pilings at the east breakwater of Morrow Island on the morning of December 19, 2011.
    - The suit had been in the water for nine days and traveled twelve miles to reach those pilings.
    - Diane Webb was 22 years old and had eight trips aboard the Carla M on the Morrow-to-Kessler Island run.
    - The Carla M cleared Morrow Island harbor at 7:45 AM; the mast came down at 8:25 AM when a tack caused the main boom to swing hard.
    - By early afternoon the stern seam opened, Dennis Holt went into the water during raft deployment and did not surface; Diane and Chris were in the raft with limited supplies (two liters of water, four energy bars, a compass, handful of flares).

  • She Survived Nine Days Alone - But Who Placed Her Logbook?

    She Survived Nine Days Alone - But Who Placed Her Logbook?
    Aug 20 2026
    She Survived Nine Days Alone - But Who Placed Her Logbook?

    A spiral notebook was set upright in a mangrove root, four feet above the tide line - deliberately placed at the exact height of high water - yet it was found sixty-two miles from Brenda Parker’s sunken boat. How did a logbook that documents her last clear handwriting end up so far from where she was later located, and who knew the tides well enough to stage it there?

    In this episode, we follow the timeline from Brenda Parker’s November 3 departure to the discovery of her logbook on November 14 and her rescue two days later, laying out the sequence of weather, equipment failure, and search decisions that shaped those nine days. What does the placement of the notebook tell us about what happened between the last written line and the moment she was found?

    Person: Brenda Parker
    Date: Departure November 3; logbook last entry November 9; logbook found November 14; rescue November 16
    Location: Harwick Marina departure; logbook found in mangroves 62 miles from capsized boat
    Event: Mast collapse that split cabin deck and tore EPIRB bracket off
    Agency: Eighth Coast Guard District search-and-rescue coordination

    - Brenda Parker was 38 years old and held a USCG Offshore Passage Operator certificate.
    - The Meridian Line was a single-handed round trip of roughly 360 nautical miles to the Dry Tortugas.
    - The National Weather Service recorded sustained winds of 32 knots and gusts to 44 on November 7.
    - The logbook was found upright in a mangrove root on November 14, five days after its last dated entry of November 9.
    - A drift-model error put search aircraft approximately 40 miles off course until a correction was approved on November 14.
