Australian sailor Tim Shaddock and his dog Bella left the coastal town of La Paz, Mexico, in April and planned to travel 6,000 kilometers by boat before disembarking in French Polynesia. However, the raging seas destroyed the boat and the electronic equipment in its possession failed.
And Australian media reported that an Australian sailor and his dog were rescued after spending about two months lost in the Pacific Ocean before being rescued by a Mexican boat.
This sailor survived by eating raw fish and drinking rain water. He explained to Australian TV channel News9 that he just needed rest and good food because he had spent so much time alone at sea with his dog Bella.
