He's to fat to be adrift for 13 months lol. Maybe he killed the boy and made up the story to get away with murder!
and floated all the way to the Marshall Islands? That would be some elaborate hoax with no guarantee of success if he planned it...
Eh.. what if his boat had cover? Like a small cabin? If he had a spot to get out of the sun for most of the day his skin wouldnt be that messed up
Id like to see the boat before calling it a hoax or not

Not a chance in hell this is legit. I think he murdered the kid he was with, freaked out and thought the only way out of it was to make up this story and have the kid did in the story.
I was really skeptical at first, but now I'm not so sure. 
I read in one article that the local authorities say they have no reason to doubt the story. The fact is, it would be very difficult and ridiculously expensive to fake this, I can't imagine how a penniless Salvadoran fisherman could pull it off. How the kid died (starved or was eaten?) is impossible to know, but after seeing the Panga he showed up in I tend to believe it may be for real.

I believe it's probably real too, not 100% but it seems true.
How hard would this be to pull off - he had a motor? and all the gas and navigation equipment to get to the Marshall Islands then he ditched it? Just to murder a kid and get away with it? Way too complicated of a plot.
Anybody see that show I Shouldn't Be Alive? Lots of examples on there of people in boats and some of them go crazy, drink salt water, try to swim away etc and only the people who stayed calm survive.
