Mexico City: 51-year-old Sydney resident Tim Shaddock and his pet dog Bella left Mexico for French Polynesia in April. But weeks later their boat was wrecked in a storm. They escaped following two months. The passenger who reached the helicopter was the savior of both of them.
Shaddock and Bella became stranded at sea more than 6,000 kilometers following setting off from La Paz, Mexico. Due to bad weather, the boat’s electronics malfunctioned and the boat was unable to move forward and was left stranded in the sea.
After running out of food in his hand, he started fishing with bait in the sea. As there were no cooking facilities, the fish was eaten raw. Later, two months later, their boat was found on the Mexican coast. The authorities were informed following the floating boat was noticed by the helicopter that came by it.
Later they were rescued by a boat that went for fishing. Shaddock was very tired by this time. Beards were also well grown. In an interview to a local television channel, he said that he had gone through a tough situation for the past two months. ‘I need rest and good food, for I have been alone at sea for a long time.
Shaddock also said that fishing equipment helped him survive at sea. For the last two months, he survived at sea by eating tuna fish. He avoided sunburn by covering himself with the wreckage of his wrecked boat. Can also eat small meals. After the medical examination, Shaddock went home.
