Oceanos: Rescue off the Wild Coast | Into the Waves | 4

Oceanos: Rescue off the Wild Coast | Into the Waves | 4

In August 1991, Lorraine Betts set sail aboard the Oceanos as cruise director, overseeing passenger entertainment and well-being. But when the lights went out and the ship began taking on water, it wasn’t the captain who led the evacuation—it was Lorraine and a small group of entertainers who sprang into action. Today, she joins host Cassie De Pecol to share her firsthand account of the night the Oceanos sank.

Later, author Sean Evans joins Cassie to discuss the new Against the Odds book, How to Survive Against the Odds, available now wherever you get your books. Learn more at SurvivalGuidebook.com.
