Page 75  Comments From Petition to Department of State











We have a petition drive in process to ask the Department of State to take a leadership role in finding the sailors aboard the Nina, a 1928 schooner that disappeared on June 4th, 2013. 

 The families, through their search advisor, Texas Equusearch, asked the Coast Guard for help, but the effort was blocked by the Department of State. The DoS sent the families to an office in the Department of State which helps relatives make FINAL ARRANGEMENTS for Americans who go missing overseas.

We feel it is inappropriate for the Department of State to advocate for final arrangements while an active search is in progress. The family asks the Department of State, and John Kerry, to take a leadership role in finding the missing sailors aboard the Nina.


Please SIGN THE PETITION and ask your friends to sign it too!  You can sign it HERE.


TES Executive Search Advisor, Ralph Baird



Here is what some of the people who signed the petition say:

David is a friend and classmate of my husband

This is very important to me because one of the seven crew members happens to be my nephew. It is very disheartening to sit here and watch our countries government do nothing to save our families. Our family has had many members of our family that fought in the first war to keep our country free.




It's a shame not to find out what happened. Hopefully they are all still alive but if not, we all need closure, especially the families

I know his mother

There are 7 beautiful human beings that need this country's assistance. Please...help!!

HOLDING HOPE FOR THE NINA AND HER CREW PAGE


I know the family of one of the missing.

These are human lives! Hello!!

I have one child, 19 year old honor student Danielle Wright, and she's out there drifting on the Nina, waiting with the rest of the crew to be rescued. It is critical that our US Government come to our aid, as I believe they will when enough attention is given to our plight.

To save lives of the seven aboard the Nina

I am signing this petition in the hopes that our government will save the 7 lives aboard the Nina!

I attended high school with the Captain David Dyche

Please help us find them.

My Loved on are on board, they deserve to be found, if it was one of your loved ones, they would certainly have been reached for until they were found and rescued, all the families need answers to heal, we still hold on to hope, we are asking for what is the Right thing for America to do..

If I were lost I sure would want to be rescued.




At The Press Conference



One of the crew members is my wife's nephew. These people need to be brought home


If it was my child out there, I would want someone to help find them.

Kyle is the step-son of a very good friend of mine.

Friends of the Wright Family.

The families need to bring their families home. My cousin's son is on the Nina!! Please help

I am personal friend of the Wright family and they are hard-working, honest people. Danielle is their only child and I can't even imagine what they are going through, knowing they may never have closure over her absence, wondering if they did all that could be done, trying to find her. Please help them have this closure. 




Family and volunteers at press conference



Personal friend

I know Danielle Wright and her family! Plus the other people on the yacht are important to the their family and friends!!!!

Enough is enough!!!!! PLEASE PLEASE HELP FIND OUR AMERICAN CITIZENS!!!!! Alive and trying to survive at sea!!!!

Kyle and his family are life long friends of mine. He and my son graduated from high school together so we have watched Kyle grow into the fine young man he is today. Please bring him and the rest of the sailors home!!

If it were MY family member, I would not want the world to give up on them.

Went to school with David, and bottom he would do it for me.

I'm a 30 year Navy veteran..finding someone lost at sea is a tradition in which, generally, all Navy's in the vicinity usually participate.



John Glennie and three sailors survived 119 days on the Rose Noelle which capsized off of the coast of New Zealand



Everyone deserves to be found, we have a Nebraska native on that boat, Nebraskans DO NOT GIVE UP


They are alive & waiting to be found!!!

David. the Captain is a friend

Kyle Jackson was my friend and it is the right thing to do for the family !!! DO THE RIGHT THING!!!


SLASHDOT ARTICLE


This is important to me because I am a Mom and if it was my child lost out there I would do everything humanly possible to bring them home. Not knowing is the worst nightmare imaginable.

These family members need to know, and there is a chance the crew members are alive somewhere needing help.

I went to school with David and Cheri (his twin) in the Florida Keys. All of us want to be able to bring all 7 on board home alive. How dare the government not want to help find its own citizens. They have paid into you too! We have been raising money to have searches go out and help find them. Why can't you help too! If they were your children I bet you would do everything possible and not give up. So please help.

Danielle Wright is related to my brother in law and I would love to see her re-united with her loving and caring family. Her mother is the sweetest person I have ever met and so are her grand parents.

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.



All articles and blogs like this one are part of the web we cast to bring awareness to EVXX.COM and the Nina 7.

Breaking Excitement In The Search Camp, Nina Life Raft Search


CHECK OUT PRIOR POSTS ON THE MISSING SHIP!  INDEX


An object found in the Nina Search



"Any news yet?" asked one person in the email thread being spread excitedly through the network of volunteers at the Equusearch effort trying to find the Niña, a 1928 schooner lost in the Tasman Sea off the coast of New Zealand.

Behind the scene is help from surprising places, many of which had refused to help before.  Everyone is grateful for the second effort.



Aircraft observers




Ralph Baird, Executive Advisor to Equusearch, (TES) has assembled an army of the brightest minds in the country.  Some are NASA scientists working as private citizen volunteers.  Others hail from a variety of experience.  All assembled to help seven people find their way home.

Today, search aircraft lifted off, not just to search, but to check out an interesting object found on the Tomnod site.  Tomnod, partly through the influence of TES, obtained satellite photographs of the search area.  The trick is, finding enough people to pour over hundreds of thousands of miles of ocean looking for the Niña.


New Search Area



A few days ago, cautious cheers rang with an URGENT email sent to executive staff.  

"What is this thing that looks like a life raft?"

  Everyone is excited with the prospects of finding the Niña crew alive.  We all pray this is the final moment of the search.  If it is not, we are prepared to do whatever it takes.  

Please stay tuned, a press conference is scheduled for Thursday, August 22nd, in Houston, Texas!
