Podcast introduction: In this episode of Shipwreck Tales, Graeme Hill is joined by maritime writer John McCrystal to revisit the extraordinary 1989 survival story of the Rose Noelle. What begins as a routine voyage from Picton to Tonga becomes one of New Zealand’s most improbable maritime ordeals, as four men endure 119 days adrift in an overturned trimaran. Hill and McCrystal unpack the decisions, personalities, false hopes and astonishing luck behind a shipwreck tale that was so unlikely many people struggled to believe it was true.
