Episode 49: Ep. 46: Saltwater Enemas (The Robertson Family)

The Robertson Family, Stranded at Sea 1972

Show notes

Time Jump! Kelsey and Jenna talk about the Robertson Family this week, the daring and adventurous family who spent over a year sailing the world, before their ship was sunk by a pod of orcas in the Pacific Ocean. The whole family survived the ship sinking, and for the following 38 days in their small raft out in the open sea, until they were rescued in 1972. The whole family survived being stranded at sea and they stuck together, inspiring us all! Remember to be prepared!
