What happened to Abby Sunderland's yacht, Wild Eyes, after she was rescued?

I can find no record of what happened to Abby Sunderland's yacht, Wild Eyes, after she was rescued during her failed attempt to circumnavigate the globe. The yacht was demasted after a rogue wave rolled it in the southern Indian Ocean.|||It was left adrift in the Indian Ocean.


So there are three possible outcomes here.


1. If Abby left the power system on (which I haven't heard if she did or not) then the vessels bilge pumps would still be working, (as she had solar power to keep her batteries charged)... In this case, more then likely, she will drift ashore - somewhere...


2. If the power was turned off, then she has most likely already sunk to the bottom of the Indian ocean.


3. The third possibility of course, is that it is very possible someone has already recovered her... and if so, of course, it is theirs for the taking, as it is well publicly known the vessels location and the fact that she was abandoned.





It will be interesting if we ever hear of Wild Eyes again.





John|||She was rescued it wasn't the end, obviously it sank.|||the last reported info on the abby sunderland site (6/17/10) is shown on a map at the her web site.





per the web site:





"Where is Wild Eyes


Wild Eyes is drifting eastwards at approximately 24 nautical miles per day towards the Australian coast."





wild eyes was built with five watertight compartments and if the hatches were closed, the odds are good that she could continue to drift until she reaches land or is salvaged.





hope this helps
