Found Sailboat In Australia Not Likely Schooner Nina

There has been a lot of hype about a mast caught in a fishing rig in the Timor Sea being from the missing schooner, Nina that disappeared on the Eastern coast of Australia in the Tasman Sea.  Part of that hype is a well written story from the Herald Sun News, Northern Territories, a publication with a sterling reputation, which does nothing more than sensationalize the remotest of possibilities the sunken yacht found in the Timor Sea is the Nina.  If the author had been doing her homework, she would have printed a more accurate headline, "Timor Sea Find Not Likely Nina".

"Not really, we are just trying to sell papers"

Sensationalist stories have hurt the Nina search before.  One of the most famous stories suggested the Nina was in horrible condition.  The authority upon whom the writer relied had never been aboard the Nina.  In fact, the authority for the story is not a shipwright, hence not in a position to make official statements about what condition the Nina is in.  Few people know, a survey was completed in 2012 in which the Nina was found to be "a sound yacht".  That story has never been made public.

The story in the Herald Sun, Northern Territories, also speaks about how massive the search for the Nina was.  If you repeat something enough times people begin to believe it.  While the search for the Nina was large, the families say there were massive errors in the search, another fact not well reported.  There is a significant likelihood the search missed the Nina and her crew because of those errors.  

The families ask all people to keep a sharp eye out for a boat lying low in the water, as well as wrecks on remote islands and reefs, debris and flotsam.  At one time that request was for boats in the Northern Tasman Sea.  Considering the currents and passage of time, the Nina could be about anywhere.

Whangarei Harbor

Authorities have been closed mouthed about the details of the mast found in the Timor Sea.  The information I have I am not at liberty to disclose at this time.  Suffice it to say, the mast found was very distinct and does not sound like it came from the missing schooner, the Nina, according to sources.  Is it possible the Nina crew found a floating wreck and salvaged a mast?  Sure, but not very likely.

We encourage the Herald Sun News, Northern Territories, and all publications to focus on things that have the potential to help the missing crew and their families.  The families have their hands full doing what authorities from many countries should have done.  Putting out sensationalist fires makes their efforts more difficult.  The truth may be just as sensational, but it is going to take someone with a lot of moxy to bring it forth.

Anything, of course, is possible.  Until divers can check the ocean floor to verify there is, in fact, a boat, and the mast was not simply blown overboard and snagged on the bottom, no one can say for sure what authorities will find.  However, speculation the found mast is the Nina is likely sensationalist journalism to sell papers and does an unjust service to the Nina sailors and their families.

Have You Seen This Boat?

Many of you have written about your experiences with the historic sailboat, Niña.  It is not surprising people have stories to tell, since the Niña was built in 1928, and started winning races the first year she was launched, including the Fastnet race which years later would claim the lives of valiant sailors.  As a consolation for the 1978 tragedy, that Fastnet race was the beginning of better life support equipment, including life raft stowage and supreme construction.  Those changes may be what has given the Niña 7 the best crack at survival.

We believe the Niña is in this picture from
the David Dyche facebook page.  We are looking for a better
picture from the top down.

We are searching for a photograph from the top down to the decks.  Despite the thousands of photographs of the Niña, I have not seen a single top down pic.  Someone somewhere must have one.

Please forward to us if you have one or have seen one.  The search for the Niña continues.  It would be helpful to have a top-down profile for our satellite search which is in process.

You can send those to immigrants2bfree@gmail.com, please mark in the header Niña because I get a million emails a day!~

How can a crew survive this much time floating around in the currents of the Tasman Sea?  It is hard, but possible.  There is a lot of rainwater.  Turtle blood doubles as hydration in a pinch.  You can also drink your own recycled water, at least for awhile.  Fish are plentiful.  All it takes is an adventurous spirit.  The Niña crew has that in spades!

Personally, speaking for myself only, and no one else, if the Niña is still afloat, her crew is in the hands of the public.  Great effort has been spent in encouraging officials to do what they are charged to do.  The only voice left is your voice.  We encourage you to use it HERE.  You can also vote with a buck, as the private search to do the job the professionals should have done is costing an absolute mint.  The staff at Sailing Savoir Faire hopes an even better method for reaching out to people in charge will soon come into play.  Each of you has a lot to do with that.

RCC-NZ Requests Independent Review Of Nina Search

One News of New Zealand reports the Rescue Coordination Center New Zealand (RCC-NZ) has ordered an independent review of their efforts to find the missing Nina.  According to One New Zealand, the review will probe the questions about why it took three weeks to launch the Nina search and why the effort was suspended two weeks later.

The Nina, a 1928 American flagged schooner, ceased communicating with New Zealand weather man, Bob McDavitt.  A late recovered text message indicated the storm sails had been shredded and the boat was continuing on a course of 310 degrees at 4 knots.  Efforts to contact the Nina were unsuccessful.  The RCC-NZ refused to task search aircraft until the Nina failed to reach her destination in Australia on schedule.

Meanwhile, a public debate rages in New Zealand about what obligation the New Zealand tax payer has in searching for a yacht that did not have anyone from New Zealand aboard her.  The Safety Of Life At Sea,  better known as the SOLAS convention, is a treaty passed in 1914 after the sinking of the Titanic.  It originally dealt with minimum ship board safety requirements since the Titanic did not carry enough lifeboats for the passengers and crew.

The SOLAS treaty divides the wold into 13 rescue areas and assigns responsibility for rescue to various countries under the treaty.   In November of 1974, major revisions in the treaty were made.

New Zealand has an immense area to patrol under the SOLAS treaty.  Responsibility under the treaty is not assigned by where a boat or ship is registered.  Rather, a country determines their responsibility by where the yacht is located.  The last position report of a yacht is used to determine which SAR area will assume primary responsibility for the search.  

The  International Aeronautical and Maritime Search and Rescue (IAMSAR) Manual provides guidance to countries in 
adopting their search and rescue procedures.  Each country adopts procedures based upon recommendations made in the manual and then is expected to follow those procedures.  

Aboard the Nina is Matthew Wootton, Danielle Wright, University of Colorado retired Professor Evi Nemeth, Kyle Jackson and the Nina's owner David Dyche along with his son David IV and wife Rosemary. The families say they are asking sailors, pilots, cruise ship passengers, fishermen, and even tourists walking the islands and beaches of Australia to keep an eye out for the missing schooner Nina.  Updates and information can be found at Here.

"All Is Lost" Falls Short To "Hi Ya Mom" and "Bring Crew Home"

Famous actor, Robert Redford is said to have put in a monumental performance in his film, "All Is Lost".  Redford is the only actor who successfully carries the story line of a sailboat sinking, and crew (Redford) taking to a life raft.

As good a performance as Redford puts in, he pales to the performance put in by the real thing.  Several short films have been produced around the missing 1928 schooner, the Nina, and her crew.  Kyle Jackson, Danielle Wright, Matthew Wootton, Evi Nemeth, and the Dyche family, David, Rosemary and David Jr, are crew on an American treasure, the Nina.

The following are two films which most people find riveting.  There is no acting here, it is all very real.

One of the last messages sent by Kyle Jackson to his mother before leaving on the Nina.  Kyle makes a frank admission in the film.

This film is about Danielle Wright, the 19 year old daughter of Ricky and Robin Wright. A loving community came together to support the Wright family. The band Kingdom wrote a song for her.

Enjoy and please support the cause of the 7 sailors stranded on the yacht, the Nina!

It is unfortunate the Redford team has not seen a way to support the real life adventure of seven sailors who may be living the Hollywood version of his film. Not to worry, the real life event is full of pure drama, intrigue, scandal and mostly, hope and inspiration!

After sending in an image that appears to be the Nina, the RCC-NZ refuses to search for the missing boat.  They say the image is not clear enough for them.

Public Appeals To RCC-NZ To Resume Search For Lost Nina

The Nina Families Remain Hopeful

Texas Equusearch (TES) and the family members of the crew of the schooner, Nina, lost in the Tasman Sea, released photographs of an image they hope is the Nina.  The image was obtained after tasking satellites to take pictures of the Tasman Sea where the 1928 American treasure disappeared along with the 7 hands aboard. TES and the families want the Rescue Coordination Center, New Zealand (RCC-NZ) to open a new search for the sailors.

The search has been intensive and well coordinated.  The satellite images are hosted on a crowd sourcing site called Tomnod.  TES and the families worked with Fort Collins based Digital Globe to take the photographs.  Over 16,000 people signed up to help review images.  All the hard work may now be paying off.

Mystery Boat, Is This The Nina?

So far, the RCC-NZ refuses to bend on opening a new search for the boat.  Under one of their theories, they say the boat sank.  However, sinking is one of six scenarios the RCC-NZ postulated about the Nina. Other scenarios include the possibility the boat is disabled and drifting or the sailors took to a life raft. The fact is, no evidence has ever been produced to prove the Nina sank, despite the largest search ever launched by the RCC-NZ.

The families say the Nina is floating in reverse circular currents of the Tasman Sea.  As proof, they point to John Glennie, who survived 119 days after his yacht, the Rose Noelle, capsized off of the East coast of New Zealand.  Officials gave up the search for Glennie and the family held a eulogy.  Still, Glennie and his 3 crew mates survived the ordeal, fishing for food and catching rain water for hydration.  Though the Nina disappeared on the West side of New Zealand, both the Rose Noelle and the Nina had problems on the same day of the year, June 4th, significant because it is winter time.

Bob McDavitt

TES and the families base their assertions on the efforts by a high tech team including volunteer NASA scientists, fluid hydrologists and geophysicists who study what happens to liquid, in this case, ocean water, and things which are deposited in them.  Figuring out where the Nina could have drifted to has been a monumental task.  However, TES has employed new methods to use existing SAROPS drift analysis software along with the tasking, for the first time ever, of satellites over the Tasman Sea in the search of a private boat.

According to an article in the New Zealand Herald, meteorologist Bob McDavitt, the satellite images could not be ruled out as representing the Nina.  McDavitt was advising friend and Nina crew member Evi Nemeth, and had the last known conversation by text with the missing sailors.  People from all over the world support the reopening of the search for the missing sailors.

Texas Equusearch is a non-profit organization founded by Tim Miller to locate missing people.  TES uses high technique tactics plus volunteers to help the authorities locate and close old missing person's cases.  TES has been credited with locating over 300 people alive which law enforcement has been unable to find.  The Texas based organization has also been able to find over 100 people who were missing and deceased, including a Navy t-34 pilot.  None of the TES volunteers are paid, including the Nina search Executive Adviser, Ralph Baird.  However, the advances made by the families will help all sailors who become lost in the Tasman Sea.

Coast Guard Asks Help After Refusing To Cooperate

Coast Guard looking for 2 fishermen reported missing near Bryan Beach

Bryan Beach

FREEPORT, Texas – Search and rescue crews are looking for two fishermen reported missing Saturday afternoon near Bryan Beach.

According to Texas Equusearch, who is helping the U.S. Coast Guard with the search, two Vietnamese men in their mid-30s were wade fishing at Bryan Beach just off Highway 1495 at 4:30 p.m. A woman in her mid-30s was also with them.

The trio got caught up in the rough surf and were swept away, witnesses said. Bystanders were able to rescue the woman, but could not reach the two men.

The U.S. Coast Guard is searching the area with a boat and a helicopter, while Texas Equusearch is assisting with their sonar equipment and all-terrain vehicles.

The beach was temporarily closed on Saturday due the rough surf and high tides generated by Tropical Storm Karen.

It is hard to believe, this is the same U.S. Coast Guard who refused all help and continues to refuse all help in saving the 7 crew members missing on the schooner Nina.  The Nina disappeared in the Tasman Sea on June 4th, 2013.  Texas Equusearch approached the Coast Guard for help running drift modeling.  The Coast Guard said it could not run the drift modeling because the U.S. State Department would not let them.

The Rescue Coordination Center-New Zealand (RCC-NZ) suspended it's search for the 7 sailors missing on the Nina on July 5th, 2013.  Texas Equusearch was asked to advise Ricky Wright in his search for his daughter, Danielle Wright, age 19, who is a crew member aboard the Nina.  The family suspects the Nina is afloat but caught in reverse circulating currents which occur in the Tasman Sea. The Coast Guard was asked to run a computer program  at a nominal cost to the Coast Guard so the families could determine the most likely course the Nina may have taken.  The Coast Guard refusal cost the search significant sums and delayed the running of the programs pending location of a private contractor who agreed to run the programs for a price.  Despite drawbacks, Texas Equusearch found a better way to run the drift modeling adding to the accuracy of the program.

Many people speculate the Nina will eventually drift to an Australian beach like other boats lost in the region, hence presenting potential political problems for the US State Department which steadfastly has refused to devote resources to save the 7 sailors.  The boat will likely drift to land within 1 year, before Secretary of State John Kerry makes a bid for the White House.  While sailors can survive at sea for extended periods of time, it is unknown what that maximum period is.  Surviving a year at sea with no provisions, catching fish and depending upon rain for water, limits life expectancy.  At the least, survivors will testify to the hardships they faced because their country refused to lift a finger to save them.  Except for local coverage, a press blackout has existed around the missing sailors and the battle the families have endured to enlist the aid of the U.S. to help them.  Last year the yacht Scotch Bonnet was abandoned near the last known position of the Nina.  It took nearly 6 months to drift ashore and was spotted only one time during it's journey.

You can help save the 7 sailors by looking for the boat on satellite images taken by Digital Globe.

Texas Equusearch has proven a great friend of the U.S. Coast Guard and the US Navy, as well as law enforcement.  The non-profit organization has been able to locate missing people who the Coast Guard and law enforcement often are unable to locate.  The organization works under the direction of law enforcement and marshals volunteers to do searches.  They also deploy high technology equipment to solve missing persons cases.  To date, they have found over 300 people alive who disappeared, and over 100 persons who were deceased.

They are going to kick it off to hot heels and happin'n toons in Lafayette, Louisiana, September 7th, 2013.  Several bands are coming together for a family fun day.  Then they kick it over to Bassett, Nebraska, thinking of all those people and towns in between.

We have a message we are working on, and it is time to solve the Nina mystery.

The Modern Woodsman will match up to $2,500 in donations in Bassett.  If we can't get the U.S. State Department to back us in our search, we will raise enough money to do it ourselves!

Inspiration:  Ninasearch

But don't sell Bassett short on the Action end.  They are going to ask everyone in the room to make a phone call to the U.S. State Department and ask them to support the Nina 7.  Will Lafayette make the same challenge?

Here is a number that works:
The phone number is 202.642.4000, choose option #4, then ask for John Kerry's Comment line!  Please leave a message!

Go on to a site called Tomnod.  Maybe you can find the Nina!

Who are the Nina 7?  If you are new to the blog, they are seven sailors, six Americans and a Brit, who are stranded on a yacht called the Nina.  The last communication was June 4th, 2013.  The rescue authorities called off the search on July 5th, 2013.

Information: Holding Hope For The Nina

If we don't find these precious souls then who will find them?  If we don't hammer our posts and our tweets, #ninarescue, if we don't ask America to support her hero's, if we don't ask England to support their hero, then what have we left to say for ourselves?

It doesn't matter who you are, what causes you believe in, what party you belong to.  This is a cause for all Americans and Englishmen and we are calling you to join with us in something every one of us understands:  Saving the lives of people we love, of American hero's

One those heroes is Evi Nemeth who is one of the original Graybeards on USENIX, and England's Matthew Wootton, who wants human kind to remain on this great Earth.  One of his solutions is finding ways to bring clean water so little children don't die of diarrhea.  

Danielle Wright, Artist, Photographer, Psychology Student, Model, also loving life.

David Dyche, Rosemary Dyche and David Dyche IV, the people who restored the American treasure, the Nina!  This boat started winning races the year she was built in 1928 and she is still winning races in her class today!

Then we have a Sandhills native.  Kyle Jackson was politically active when he was in the U.S.  He worked as Paige in the U.S. Senate.  He is very inventive, a triathlete, and he will reach out and touch your soul if you give him a chance.

We need your support, watch for more details, they are com'in down the pike!

Search Coordinator Ralph Baird Says Call

 The Department Of State

I was very disappointed to learn the flights had been halted in the Nina search today.  It is not that I disagree with the decision to halt the flights and the $20,000 daily bill the families have to pay to keep the planes in the air.  I have intimate trust in Ralph Baird, Executive Search Advisor with Equusearch.  There are valid reasons to conserve resources pending better information.  


Rather, I see it from the point of view of the sailors.  They are out there, in a floating hell, caught in the circular currents of the immense Tasman Sea, waiting for rescue.  They are catching rain water to survive.  They are fishing and spearing the critters that lurk near the man made reef which once was the national treasure, the historic sailboat Nina.  The people who have the equipment to rescue the sailors won't do it because of bureaucratic stink.

A tranquil scene from the press conference and 

fundraiser for the Nina 7

Professionals realize the Nina is out there.  Yachts that sink cough up flotsam.  Yet, nothing has ever been found of the Nina.  The only evidence the yacht sank is the inability of the authorities to find her.  


"They" thought the Scotch Bonnet sank last year after it was abandoned near the last known position of the Nina.  Except for a single sighting, the Scotch Bonnet was never seen again...until it floated onto Brunswick Heads, New South Wales, an Australian beach, 5 months later.  While the Nina will no doubt float to land, the longevity of the crew is at risk.


John Glennie and three crewmen rode his capsized trimaran for 119 days off the coast of New Zealand until they washed up upon an island.  By then, the authorities had cancelled the search and friends had held a eulogy.  Glennie got the last laugh.  He said he created his own miracle because the authorities were not going to create if for him.  


The problem is, the people who have the ability to look for the Nina have washed their hands of the responsibility to look for her.  They have the assets needed, including long range aircraft for an over-the-ocean search.  They can process satellite information being collected by Equusearch.  They can authorize drift models to be run by the Coast Guard at nominal cost.  They can cooperate with the private organization tasked with doing a government job.  The U.S. has other high-tech means to help the seven sailors aboard the Nina. Yet, the U.S. State Department has placed roadblocks in the way of the private search consultant, Equusearch, at every step.


Worse, by mutual cooperation with the U.S., New Zealand could save millions of tax payer search dollars.  Lives could be saved through the deployment of new search tactics for sailors lost in the Tasman Sea.  If the U.S. and New Zealand rolled up their sleeves and got to work on the Nina case, new frontiers would be forged.  Lives, sailor's lives, rescuer's lives, anguish by worried relatives, all could be prevented if the authorities worked together.


This first effort between countries using high technology might be written off as an exercise to pave the way for future searches.  By those terms, a few dollars invested now by each country would yield huge benefits later.

Media volunteers and organizers prepare a commercial with speaker John Glennie

 Instead, the U.S. sends inquiries from the search coordinator and from families to an office in the U.S. State Department which manages the return of the bodies of persons who have perished in a foreign country.  The State Department is not working in tandem with Equusearch.  By indulging red tape, the U.S. State Department robs the families of the basic right to hope. At least the U.S. State Department can't rob the 7 brave sailors of that same hope.



PLEASE CALL THE U.S. STATE DEPARTMENT.  The telephone number is 202.642.4000, push #4, then ask for John Kerry's comment phone line. Leave a message!


Please also contribute to the fund to save the Nina 7.  Every cent counts!

A Community United

PRIOR POSTS INDEX

Tonight, people from across the US and even New Zealand came together in support of the Nina 7, the seven people stranded on a sailboat in the Tasman Sea since June 4th, 2013. They have little else on their side. Tonight, there is hope because a community united joined hands and hearts in an effort to continue the search forced upon them by fate and by those who fail in their vision.

Shelley Rogers, Darlene Marullo, Ricky and Robin Wright and representatives of the seven families pulled together with Texas Equusearch to hold a fund raiser. The evening started with an inspiring speech by Executive Search Coordinator Ralph Baird who spoke about the problems the search encountered in gaining government cooperation. Equusearch, a non-profit search organization, usually works in tandem with law enforcement and the military. 


Baird said the people in New Zealand believe the crew of the Nina is alive. He took a poll of the relatives working on the case and they said they believed the crew is alive.


Baird said the people who don't believe the Nina 7 are alive are representatives in the U.S. State Department. Instead of assisting Equusearch in it's efforts, the State Department has blocked search efforts. Baird asked every one in the room to take out their phones and call the State Department. He asked them to support the Nina 7.


The telephone number is 202.642.4000, push #4, then ask for John Kerry's comment phone line. Please leave a message!


Is the price of a phone call too much to ask?

The group was also inspired by a fascinating story from John Glennie, who survived 119 days at sea off of the coast of New Zealand. His trimaran, the Rose Noelle, capsized when hit by a towering wall of water. The crew was trapped inside the capsized boat for over a day, until they hacked their way through the bottom of the capsized boat. For the next four months the crew lived in a space the size of a bed with only 18 inches of headroom.



Glennie said we should be proud of the brave sailors who are on the Nina. They had the courage to live their dream. 

More, though, Glennie said great people come from surviving a life challenge. The Nina 7 are giants tasked with creating their own miracle. They are up to the task.

Laszlow Nemeth said he did not know what to add to the event except a heart felt thank you. Sue Wootton thanked the people who had come in support of the seven sailors. Robin Wright said for the first time since the yacht went missing she had been able to relax, just a little.


Following the speeches came an auction for the things businesses had donated. A generous community insured the Nina search will continue for at least one more day. It is the public, though, who will likely have the final vote. If they don't support the search, if they won't make the phone calls to encourage government participation, well, we don't want to go there. Please help the Nina 7.


On June 4th, 2013, Matthew Wootton, Evi Nemeth, Kyle Jackson, David Dyche, Rosemary Dyche, David Dyche IV and Danielle Wright sent their last call via cell satellite telephone. They had blown out their sails and riding under bare poles, a yachting term to mean running with the wind and without sails.  A rescue effort was launched by the RCC-NZ 20 days later.  When the rescue effort ceased on July 5th, 2013, Ricky Wright contacted Texas Equusearch. The non-profit Texas company has found people when law enforcement has given up. The new search coordinator has tasked satellites and brought high tech to SAR at sea.
