🎧 Chapter 30: The Final Trace of The Sarah Joe
1979, five friends left Maui on a small fishing boat.
No radio. No life vests. No distress call.
When a sudden storm rolled in… they vanished without a trace.
A decade later, the boat washed ashore on a remote island—
half-buried in sand.
Nearby, a shallow grave.
Only one man had come back.
What happened in those ten missing years?
And who was there to bury him?
Some stories sink.
This one came back.
