masts and later her rudder. leaving
her helpless derelict
With never a glimpse Of land or sail
to give ray Of hope, the Oromana
drifted for 80 days. After Is days the
supply of food was gone. The natives
managed to catch shark with hook
and line. This lasted them five days,
The rest Of the time they had no food.
An occasional shower prevented death
from thirst.
Then the miracle" happened. The
mountains Of Tahiti rose slowly over
the horizon. The shifting sea current
brought them nearer and nearer until
they were finally sighted from snors
and a powerboat sent to tow them in.
They were too weak to rise to their
feet, but, after few days ashore all
appeared to be rapidly recovering from
their experience.
The natives say the hand Of God
guided their craft, for the prevailing
winds In these latitudes are from the
northwest, a direction which would
