Almost 15 miles off the coast. Holy shite.

Yeah I’ve seen reports of 2 to 4 miles from shore. Doubt he got 15 miles away. Still a long haul in the open gulf in a kayak. Currents, waves and wind can frick you up in a tiny vessel.

Here's a short video from the USCG showing the rescue: Simone Eli Tweet

Supposedly, once the USCG spotted him, they radioed to a nearby boat and the boat picked him up.
