Synopsis

Based on the true story of two men, lifelong friends, who ventured into the heart of the endless ocean at its loneliest point in a 20-foot sailboat. Embarking on a trip across the Pacific Ocean from California to Hawaii, they navigated by means of only a sextant and the stars. They had planned for an uneventful sail, but instead encountered a treacherous storm that threatened their lives, threw them dangerously off-course and sealed their fates irrevocably together as they battled to survive. Readers will come to know these extraordinary men and their amazing journey--not only on the sea, but as their friendship developed and strengthened through the years --then agonize with them in their most powerful test of loyalty to each other and to their faith. Other sailors have crossed the ocean's expanse, but few with such primitive tools, such a small vessel, and the depth of friendship and determination of these two friends.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

The true story of two men, already life-long friends, who ventured into the heart of the endless ocean at its loneliest point in a 20-foot sailboat. Embarking on a trip across the Pacific Ocean from southern California, to Hilo, Hawaii, they navigated by means of only a sextant and the stars. It was meant to be their "Great Adventure." The men had planned for an uneventful sail, but encountered a treacherous storm that threatened their lives, threw them dangerously off course, and sealed their fate irrevocably together as they battled to survive. Readers will come to know these two extraordinary men and their amazing journey -- not only on the sea, but beyond -- as their friendship developed and strengthened through the years, then agonize with them in their most powerful test. Other sailors have crossed the ocean’s expanse, but few with such primitive tools, such a small boat, and with the depth of friendship and determination as these two friends.
