Fishermen saved after 3 months at sea

This is a rather interesting story with no political overtones whatsoever:

Three Mexican fishermen who drifted more than 8,000km across the Pacific have been rescued after at least three months at sea.

The men were picked up on August 9 near the Marshall Islands by a Taiwanese fishing boat, said Eugene Muller, manager of Koo's Fishing, in the islands' capital of Majuro.

"They were skinny and hungry when they were picked up last week but otherwise healthy," he said.

The men reportedly survived by catching seabirds and drinking rainwater.
