"Missing Sailor Found Alive in Hawaii After Weeks-Long Search"

A sailor, Noel Rubio, who was more than two weeks overdue in arriving in Hawaii, finally arrived on Saturday after departing from Long Beach, California, on Dec. 28. The U.S. Coast Guard had initiated a search for him when he failed to arrive as scheduled on Jan. 18. Rubio, 60, was sailing to Oahu, Hawaii, in his vessel, Malulani, and had not been heard from since he left California. The Coast Guard utilized various means, including urgent marine information broadcasts and expert advice from experienced trans-pacific sailors, to determine the ship's location.
