From Mad Mariner:

Last month, the Concordia, a specially-built classroom vessel carrying scores of students, sank off the coast or Brazil after the tall ship was knocked down by a microburst.

This month, Nigel McCarthy, the head of West Island College's Class Afloat Program, explained to Mad Madriner's MadCast how the students survived for more than a day in the liferafts, helping each other out and singing Hakuna Matata to keep up their spirits.
