Sailing Into Disaster - The Tami Oldham Ashcraft Story
Welcome back to Speaking of Her. This week, Jess takes us on a gripping voyage through the harrowing true story of the courageous — Tami Oldham Ashcraft.
What was meant to be a dream sailing trip across the Pacific with her fiancé turned into a nightmare when they were caught in the path of a Category 4 hurricane. In an instant, everything changed — and Tami was left alone, adrift in the vast ocean with no mast, no engine, and only her instincts to guide her.
In this episode, Jess delves into:
- The romance and adventure that led Tami and Richard to set sail
- The devastating impact of Hurricane Raymond
- Tami’s unimaginable 41-day battle for survival at sea
- The strength, resilience, and determination that kept her alive
This is more than a story of survival—it’s a testament to the strength of the human spirit, as one woman pushed through hunger, injury, and heartbreak, navigating the vast ocean with only a sextant and sheer determination to guide her home.
