单人驾驶帆船穿越太平洋的中国水手郭川在与其团队失联之前最后一次媒体连线音频曝光,在这段音频中,郭川透露周一晚突遇强风,航行过程中两次撞到鲨鱼,《京华时报》报道。
Guo, 51, was last heard of just after 3:00 p.m. on Tuesday Beijing time when his trimaran sailed 900 nautical miles off the west of Hawaii, Xinhua News Agency said.
51岁的郭川于北京时间周二下午3点之后失去联系,当时他驾驶的三体帆船位于距离夏威夷群岛西约900海里处,新华社报道称。
His last audio recording was made at about 11:00 a.m. on Tuesday when located to the north of Hawaii, the paper said.
最后一次媒体连线大约是在周二上午11点,当时郭川位于夏威夷群岛以北的位置,该报表示。
"No news is good news," he was heard saying on Monday evening. "Without preventative measures, there could have been a problem. Fortunately, everything is past now," he noted in reference to the changing weather conditions.
介绍周一晚的航行情况时,他说:“没有消息就是好消息,如果没有防范措施,就会有问题。好在都应对过去了,”他指的是多变的气候条件。
Guo also mentioned that he encountered two sharks, which were about one to two meters long. "I was lucky that they did not do much harm to the ship," he said. "Of course, I don’t hope to see any whales, which would bring unpredictable consequences."
郭川还提到他还两次撞到鲨鱼,大概有1-2米长。“好在对船没有什么大的损害。当然,我不希望撞到鲸鱼,否则那将是不可预计的后果。”他说道。
Rescue efforts are still on going. A search aircraft, sent from Honolulu, found the main sail in the water, broken off the vessel, but didn’t see Guo on deck, and all attempts to contact the sailor have failed, Xinhua said late Wednesday.
救援工作仍在继续。搜救飞机从檀香山出发,在水中发现了主帆、支离破碎的船体,但未从甲板半发现郭川,所有尝试联系水手的努力都失败了,周三时新华社表示。
Guo, a native of the Chinese coastal city of Qingdao in Shandong Province, set sail on his trimaran near San Francisco on October 18 local time, with the aim to set a new solo non-stop trans-Pacific world record from San Francisco to Shanghai.
郭川出生于中国沿海城市山东青岛,于当地时间10月18日从旧金山附近驾驶三体帆船出发,以中国上海为目的地,开启了挑战单人不间断跨太平洋世界记录的旅程。
