3. I Wouldn't Know From Their Picture That They Were Lost At Sea For Five Months.....

they weathered the experience really well. I also remember seeing two dogs on their boat. I heard that they had a large supply of oatmeal and pasta. Did the dogs eat that as well. What did they do for water? Did they have a supply of water on the boat or did they drink rain water that they may have recovered?

Well - good on them if they really lived through the experience they described.

On the other side - if this was all contrived - they have good imaginations and fodder for both a book and a movie. Maybe this was a get rich quick scheme. Who knows?
