Rescue at Sea - Mid-Atlantic Mayday

On December 21st, 2016 the Coombes family were forced to abandon Dove II, their sailboat and home, in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. This video is the account of their rescue from our perspective as the crew of Tilly Mint - the sailboat that answered the mayday.\r

For those of you who follow along with our Monday Never adventures, this video is coming out of sequence. We think that it is important to tell this story in as close to real-time as possible to help garner support for this family.\r

*UPDATE - Jan 24* Thanks to the incredible generosity of hundreds of people, the fundraising goal has been surpassed by a mile, so were closing the campaign. The outpouring of support has been truly incredible. You all are a testament to the goodness of people. - Will\r

** Update - Jan 28 ** The Coombes family is still searching for their boat and have written a detailed account of the rescue from their perspective. They have also created a new GoFundMe page for those of you interested in learning more and further supporting their efforts: \r
