Single hand sailor saved in Atlantic
The Turkish single hand sailor Dilek Ergul, after having been rescued by the "KP Albatross", arrived in Rotterdam on Jan 23, 2015. She was rescued in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean. Ergul had departed from Santiago Island in the Caribbean Sea on Jan 11 for a solitary trek across the Atlantic Ocean, but was shipwrecked off Cape Verde two days later when the "Symina" crashed into something and she lost control of steering. The "KP Albatross" responded to her mayday calls. She arrived in Rotterdam after a nine-day trip with the vessel which had come from Santos. The solitary crossing of the Atlantic Ocean was a charity project for orphan girls studying at Darussafaka Schools, Turkish establishments that provide equality of opportunity in education for children who have lost their parents.
