The implication of all this is that eventual rescue is remote but cannot be ruled out if they survive long enough: search and rescue would be based on the last plotted position thousands of miles away on the belief that the ship may have sunk at that point; the island is not near any trade route. This is before the days of GPS and

Desert Island Story The boat went clash as we collided with huge rocks. The boat was sinking‚ it was too late‚ and we had sunk. I was swimming as fast as I could.
