一对来自加拿大夫妇横渡大西洋途中遇难,遗体于加拿大东岸小岛寻获。据皇家加拿大骑警队(RCMP) 7月12日声明,70岁的 Brett Clibbery 和60岁妻子 Sarah Packwood 原驾驶42英尺电动帆船启航,遗体却在一艘救生艇上被发现,并漂至加拿大东海岸的沙布尔岛。
这对夫妇6月11日自加拿大哈利法克斯港启航,目标是3,200公里外的葡萄牙亚速尔群岛。6月18日被报失踪,7月10日才寻获遗体。他们弃船改乘救生艇的原因尚待调查。
沙布尔岛是长43公里的沙洲,位于哈利法克斯东南300公里处,因逾350起沉船事故而被称为“大西洋坟场”。

Clibbery 儿子 James 在 Facebook 悼文中称:“他们是非凡的人,离去留下无法填补的空虚。”
这对自称冒险家的夫妇在 YouTube 频道 Theros Adventures 分享旅程。此次航行为他们“绿色奥德赛”计划一部分,旨在证明长途旅行可不依赖化石燃料。Clibbery 曾表示:“我们用电动船,引擎靠太阳能充电。”
