Three men set out to sail about 100 miles south of Matagorda Bay in Texas. One night during their one man was startled by himself floating in water while sleeping one night. There was knee deep water in their ship, due to a water extractor malfunction. The boat soon sunk, so they jumped ship. The men were missing at sea since August 22nd.THe coast guard searched for a week for the men, before calling the search off, after they had searched more than 86,000 miles of sea. Later on after it was called off, a private vessel found them sitting on top of their 23 foot long ship, 180 miles away from Port Aransas, Texas. After they were found they were crying and celebrating, knowing they were now safe and could be reunited with their families.>
