A cruise ship saved a man who was trying to string across the Ocean of the Pacific in his bread boat after it capsized.
Tom Robinson, 24, aspired to finish the effort as the youngest guy ever.
He was treated for skin and thirst on board the ship, according to local media reports, but he is often in great wellness.
When Mr. Robinson left Peru in July of last year, he started his record-breaking test. By December, he hoped to be in Cairns, Australia.
After leaving Luganville, Vanuatu, on Monday, he was on the final leg of his journey.
His boat capsized on Thursday night for reasons that are still unknown, but the authorities were alerted by the activation of his disaster stress beacon.
According to a post on his website, Mr. Robinson was helped out of the water early on Friday morning by the P & amp, O Pacific Explorer, who then assisted him in ascending the rope ladder to the deck.
According to local media reports, the ship detoured for 200 kilometers( 124 miles ) to aid in the recovery.
Mr. Robinson thanked the ship’s crew,” whose sailing and competence ensured a safe rescue ,” in the statement.
The cruise ship was headed to Auckland in New Zealand, and Mr. Robinson would sail back to Brisbane from there, according to Tamu Tapaitau, a team member who was helping him with his effort.
