Rescued fishermen

...it appeared the three men had survived on rain water, sea birds and fish they had been able to catch as they drifted in their 25-foot-long (8 metre) fibreglass boat.

I hope they had all read Life of Pi. They would have gleaned some good tips!

Didn't see anything in the story about a tiger on board, though.
