Depending how you look at it. Coast Guard Rescues Man Floating In Atlantic WESH.com 11:24 a.m. EDT June 29, 2007 DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - A Longwood man has been pulled out of the ocean after falling overboard from his boat and swimming for seven hours without a life vest. Russell Alger, 65, was spotted by search crews floating six miles off of Daytona Beach, WESH 2 News reported. The search was initiated after a military helicopter saw his boat running without anyone onboard near Daytona Beach. The boat eventually washed up later in Flagler County.

Like Beauty

Luck is in the eyes of the beholder. I think in this case, she may have started out on the not so good looking side (falling in), but it soon became 2 AM and the bar was closing, she was then the most beautiful woman around (after 7 hours treading water with no PFD).
