Russian adrift on dingy in coldest sea of gales for two months rescued

The prosecutor's office in the far east of Russia said that the man was rescued on Monday by a fishing vessel off the Kamchatka Peninsula.

It didn't name the survivor, but Russian news reports identified him as 46-year-old Mikhail Pichugin, who in early August set on a journey to watch whales in the Sea of Okhotsk together with his 49-year-old brother and 15-year-old nephew. Their bodies were reportedly found in the boat when the Angel fishing vessel rescued Pichugin.
