The raft to your left washed ashore in
1989. Clothing found suggests that children
were among those on the raft. The orange life vest was
left behind by the Coast Guard to indicate that these
refugees were rescued at sea.
The raft on the right washed ashore in 1994. The
90-mile Florida Straits between Cuba and south
Florida is treacherous, and the fate of the individuals .
this raft is unknown.
