Navy sailor on solo voyage injured, stranded midsea
While sailing as part of the iconic Golden Globe Race, a 14m-high wave rolled over and left Abhilash Tomy severely injured. His vessel, Thuriya, momentarily capsized and his mast snapped in the storm in the remote waters of the Southern Indian Ocean. Tomy remains incapacitated on his bunk inside the boat, and it will be a few days before rescuers can reach him.
