Since Mary Ann, Ginger and the Professor were snared from Gilligan's Island!
Last night off Oahu’s North Shore a pleasure cruise went very wrong. The boat, a 25 foot Boston Whaler, was two miles from Waimea when it fuel ran out and then the bilge pump stopped working and the hull took on water and it flipped over, tossing 14 people into the water including a five-year-old child and a dog.
The horror! The absolute horror and that horror could have ended with everyone dead, their bones chewed by tiger sharks. But guess who else was on the boat?
Australia’s hottest couple Tyron Swan and ………………………. Brinkley Davies!
Unless you are culturally gorked you will know that Tyron and Brinkley, hailing from South Australia, are magical creatures, soon to be ultra-famous. Tyron duct tapes paraplegics onto his back and takes them surfing. And he is handsome. Brinkley communes with sharks, killer whales, etc. And she gorgeous. Together they are unstoppable. And so when the boat capsized? No big deal! They floated along with it for a few hours in the black of night holding a five-year-old child and caring for a dog until the Coast Guard dropped them a boat and then came and snared them.
“It was no worries…” Brinkley told my wife afterward “…but if we had been back home we would have frozen to death.” But I disagree, positing their smoking good looks/pure hearts would have warmed the very ocean.
How thrilled do you think the Coast Guard was? For sure totally. It was definitely the world’s sexiest ocean rescue.
