Boys missing at sea for a week ‘never gave up hope’
Josh Long and Troy Driscoll huddled together at night for warmth while sharing a wetsuit they found in their boat, with one wearing the top, the other the bottom. They spent their days searching the horizon for help, praying and singing hymns, and Driscoll, 15, resorted to eating raw jellyfish, which made him nauseous. They tried to sleep during the day, when the seas were calmer. At night, the boys were buffeted by 8ft waves.
"It was the first time I got mad at God in my life," said Driscoll yesterday. "I asked 'Why me? What did I do to deserve this'?"
