Tami Oldham Played By Shailene Woodley In Adrift (2018)
The movie Adrift (2018) depicts the survival story of Tami Oldham as she struggled to get herself and her fiancé to safety after their sailing trip was disturbed by a catastrophic hurricane.
Tami Oldham had some sailing experience under her belt, but a category-four hurricane wrecked her boat and she herself was unconscious for 27 hours. She then had to fix up a sinking boat, create a makeshift sail, and then rely only on a clock and a sextant to hopefully reach the nearest coast, which was Hawaii. All the while, she was battling with great loss and grief.
If you have a chance, watch season 1 episode 1 “Shark Survivor”. It is one crazy survival story narrated by the survivors. You will not easily forget.
I shouldn't be Alive was a great show. There was even an episode about a sailor trying to make it across the Atlantic in a small boat that was overturned and he spent many days drifting at sea, surviving on solar still water and what he could catch until he was finally rescued around the Bahamas.
