If you like survival stories you will enjoy this book. A family of three; Dad, Stepmom and 17 year-old son go on a sailing adventure to the South pacific...then hit a reef. They end up in a dingy and liferaft with a small amount of food and water. It is interesting to view how they kept their spirits up even when the ocean constanly flips the dingy and then the water eventually runs out. It is a touching story of family. I know if I were stuck in a liferaft with my 17 year-old daughter I would be jumping over the side after a few days!
