She Went To Sea In a Sieve, She Did*

Not really, but she might as well have:

A woman from Harbor Island drifted on a raft for about five hours on Saturday before a boater rescued her more than four miles offshore in St. Helena Sound.

Skipper Paul Field of Fripp Island Sea Rescue said the woman was dehydrated and sunburned but required no serious medical attention.

She put her raft in the water at about 1 p.m. and was pulled by the tide far off shore before a boater found her and brought her close enough to shore for rescuers to take over, Field said.




*hope you folks are all fans of Edward Lear.
