Two Survive Long Trip in Leaking Schooner
Frank Correia and John L. Lasaro survived a four month adrift voyage after their schooner item B Draper sailed from Providence December 18 1922 bound for the Cape Verde Islands. The ship carried nine aboard at departure with no passengers and four crew perished during the ordeal. The vessel drifted south of the equator and into the Brazilian canal before being towed to Clarya Brazil where it sank and limped ashore badly. The two men waited months for the American consul to arrange their passage home.
