I really enjoyed this. These are true stories about people who had a very hard time and some of them did not make it. He goes into what decisions were made and speculates about why. He makes very clear explanations about navigation and boat handling in bad seas. I appreciated the many charts and diagrams that helped in understanding the situation. A very good read.
