"This man survived in a nightmare scenario for even the most experienced mariner," said Lt. Cmdr. Dana Grady, Sector St. Petersburg's command center chief. His survival is a testament to the critical importance of safety measures at sea.
Lt. Cmdr. Dana Grady added, "To understand the severity of the hurricane conditions, we estimate he experienced approximately 75-90 mph winds, 20-25 foot seas, for an extended period of time to include overnight." This highlights the extreme challenges faced in such dangerous conditions.
After enduring harsh conditions due to Hurricane Milton, the man was rescued and taken to Tampa General Hospital. This emphasizes the risks associated with maritime activities during severe weather events.
