He recalled seeing another seaman also jump overboard with a similar life preserver.Their intention was to swim to the pontoon. Jack said that one of the men on the pontoon threw a rope to him, but he was unable to catch it because of the rough water and the tide, which caused them to drift away from the pontoon.Jack, who can swim, said that he became separated from the other men who had jumped overboard and began drifting with the tide.“After I start drifting me alone I start shouting ‘help, help, and he (the other crewman with the life ring) ask is who,Cheap Jerseys From China, and he swim to me.”The men continued to drift with the tide, while hoping that someone would eventually rescue them. However, no one came to their aid.Jack recalled that the nights were extremely cold. They had no food and he eventually was forced to drink salt water when thirst overcame him. This left him with blistered lips and tongue.Exhaustion began to step in, since they were only able to sleep for brief intervals. They talked to pass the time.“All we were talking about was about reaching land.”But the young seaman said that he was determined to survive.“I had one thought in mind. I pray: ‘God, now is not my time to die.’”“Me and he ‘gaff’ and he say he hungry, he hungry. We see land from a distance, but the place was getting darker.”And for a brief moment on Friday night, they actually thought that their ordeal was over.“Last night (Friday) we see a light, so we say like we near Parika or Vreed-en-Hoop, and he saw leh we swim to the light, but when we reach close was not Parika.”The seaman said that he was told that they may have been near Shell Beach at the time.“At one time we start giving up hope,NFL Jerseys Store, because like we swimming to land and we ain’t reaching land.”Jack said that his companion woke him around 01:00 hrs yesterday.“He wake me up and I ask he what he wake me up for, because I was so tired. He wake me up to ask if I want we continue swimming to shore, and I say ‘just now,China Jerseys Cheap, just now’, and I end up dropping back to sleep. When I wake up back at around 08:00 hrs this morning (yesterday) he was gone.”“After I get up this morning I see a sand bank and after I didn’t see him I decide to swim towards the sand bank, but I keep falling into a doze.”In fact, Jack was so exhausted that he did not even know that the crew from a speedboat spotted him and were in close range.“I turn and I see the speedboat and I wave to them and they pull me up.”He said that the seamen, who were heading to Venezuela, placed him on another vessel, and this crew handed him over to the Coast Guard. He was then admitted to the Mabaruma Hospital.Jack said that he’s in a weakened state, and his lips and tongue are blistered.A Georgetown resident with two children, Jack is expected to be transported to the city today.The young man’s relieved father said that he learned of his son’s rescue around noon hrs yesterday.“This is a man who could swim,” Mr. Jack said. “I had confidence he would make it.”
