Book Description
Lieutenants George Sigler and Charlie Gore left San Francisco in a rubber inflatable boat with absolutely no water and only 6 pounds of food to test survival concepts while crossing the Pacific Ocean. This is the story of two men who believed that they could save lives of future castaways if they took a scientific approach to the problems of survival at sea. Caught in a raging storm, their raft was carried vertically up the side of a rouge wave that towered above them. They were totally helpless as the wave broke, throwing their raft stern over bow. The pilots-turned-seamen found themselves in 59-degree water fighting for their lives. Unable to right their raft and on the verge of becoming hypothermic, they took the drastic step of deflating the raft in order to pull it upright. Days of boredom were punctuated by moments of sheer excitement as whales surrounded their raft, and a Great White shark took all too much interest in them. They fought off an attack by dorado which were determined to sink them by biting through the bottom of the raft.
