A wave is pictured hitting the starboard side of a 30-foot sailboat with rudder and rigging problems 400 miles south of Cold Bay, Alaska, Oct. 20, 2015. The good Samaritan crew of Tor Viking II responded to assist the distressed mariner after being contacted by the crew of a Coast Guard C-130 Hercules from Air Station Kodiak.
