Overnight Rescue Saves Rower after Capsize in 3,000-Mile Atlantic Race
The U.S. Coast Guard and the tanker Horten rescued Benoit Bourguet, a 47-year-old Belgian rower, after his single-man boat City of Liverpool capsized from rogue waves during the World's Toughest Row Race about 1,275 miles east of Puerto Rico; he had been in distress for roughly 24 hours and was dehydrated but in good health, and will be transferred from the tanker later.
