Five fishermen, three Peruvians and two Colombians, were rescued in the Galapagos Islands after 55 days adrift at sea. Their boat suffered alternator failure two days after leaving Peru, disabling communication and navigation. They survived by catching fish, and drinking rainwater and seawater. Rescued by an Ecuadorian tuna boat on May 7th, the fishermen are in stable condition and will be repatriated.
