I appreciate your' concern, but what the Pruitt family lacks in intelligence, we make up for in mental strength. My grandfather was in the Navy during WW2, and was lost at sea for six days. Wearing a PFD, but no life raft, food, or water. Somehow he was found, and survived to tell the tale' (true story). I didn't realize the signifigance of this until I was much older, having spent my share of time at sea.
The moral of the story is : If it's in the paper on monday "kayaker lost at sea", wait till the paper comes out on friday "man found swimming with a YFT on a gameclip".
