Kushila Stein, a 45-year-old woman from New Zealand, lived out her own unfortunate version of Survivor when she was lost at sea for nearly three days in a simple dinghy.
While helping sail a yacht from Turkey to Athens, she left the boat and rowed a dinghy to the nearby island of Folegandros, in order to “stretch her legs,” reported The Guardian. In a text message sent to her traveling companion, she claimed she was on her way back to the yacht, but then she lost control of the dinghy after an oar fell overboard and was sent adrift by strong winds.
