Interesting list of seafarers abandoned at sea, usually to to legal or contractual obligations.<p>This includes the case of Mohammed Aisha[0] who was stuck on board a boat deemed unseaworthy by the Egyptian government and stuck anchored off the Suez Canal. He forced to live aboard the ship alone for 4 years without pay, swimming to shore every few days for supplies. There is an interesting video on his situation[1]<p>[0] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ilo.org&#x2F;dyn&#x2F;seafarers&#x2F;seafarersbrowse.details?p_lang=en&amp;p_abandonment_id=331&amp;p_search_id=210426184428" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.ilo.org&#x2F;dyn&#x2F;seafarers&#x2F;seafarersbrowse.details?p_...</a><p>[1] <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=fddCfXvrw-0" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.youtube.com&#x2F;watch?v=fddCfXvrw-0</a>
