Download or read book Overboard written by Michael J. Tougias and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2010-03-16 with total page 215 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From masterful storyteller Michael J. Tougias comes a new, heart-stopping true-life tale of maritime disaster, his most thrilling and amazing story yet. In May 2005, Tom Tighe, captain of a forty-five-foot-long sailboat named the Almeisan, and his first mate, Loch Reidy, welcomed three new crewmembers for a five-day voyage from Connecticut across the blue waters of the Gulf Stream to sun-drenched Bermuda. The new crew included forty-six-year-old Kathy Gilchrist, seventy-year-old Ron Burd, and thirty-four-year-old Chris Ferrer. Although Tighe had made the trip forty-eight times, with Reidy accompanying him on twenty of those voyages, the rest of the crew had joined to learn more about offshore sailing. Four days into the voyage, an enormous storm struck, sweeping two of the crew into the towering sea. The remaining crewmembers managed to stay aboard the vessel as it was slowly torn apart by the rampaging ocean. Overboard! follows the simultaneous desperate struggles of both those still on the boat and those fighting for their lives in the sea. The Coast Guard, alerted to the Almeisan’s distress, rushed to the storm-tossed scene. Their ensuing search and rescue mission proved so spectacularly difficult and dangerous that it was later selected—from among thousands of incidents—as the Guard’s search and rescue case of the year. Highly trained helicopter pilots and rescue swimmers alike found themselves in almost as much trouble as those trapped by the ferocious ocean. By turns tragic, thrilling, and deeply inspiring, Overboard! is a riveting, fast-paced story of death and survival at sea—amazing, unforgettable, and all true.

Download or read book Bluewater to Brown written by John Truesdale and published by . This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's taken me 32 years to do this book on a variety of different machines. Working with a damaged brain is nobody's picnic and with the tremors in my hands, I cannot fly over the keyboard. I have to do it one-key-at-a-time. It started out as a novel but I turned it into an autobiography¿real people, real names. Many things happened while this epistle traveled through four states, two marriages, pages got lost, even whole chapters, and all had to be rewritten. Page numbers got skewed and had to be redone.The Non-Disclosure Form they made me sign expired in December 1998¿basically a gag order for thirty years. Even my Dad, a Bird Colonel and Judge Advocate General of the Marine Corps, had to sign it. He is responsible for getting me out of Vietnam because I had no official orders to be there. And he brought charges on five Naval officers that had anything to do in sending me to Vietnam.This is a story that needs to be told.
