Dear Student,
 
The questions you have posted here are from the short narrative by Gordon Cook and Alan East, “We’re not afraid to die...if we can all be together.” The narrator was sailing in the Indian Ocean with his wife, Mary, his two children, Jonathan and Suzanne and two crewmen, Larry Vigil and Herb Seigler.
 

1. When the gigantic wave hit the boat, the narrator was flung out of the boat and was about to drown. Wavewalker was at the point of capsizing when another wave straightened it out and also, caused the narrator to be pulled back into the ship’s deck. Mary came up to the deck to shout out the warning that the ship was sinking fast. The narrator handed over the wheel to her, where she hung on and controlled the ship’s steering for the remaining of the storm. That was the first example of the family’s courage. Sue and John were very scared; Sue also had a nasty head injury. Yet, they managed to convince their father that they were alright and that Sue only had a slight pain in her head, nothing big. The narrator then worked tirelessly to close the gaping holes in the boat and pump out the water inside. It was then that he noticed that Sue’s head was horribly swollen; she had two black eyes and a deep cut on her arm. When asked why she didn’t tell them about the extent of her injuries, she merely said that she didn’t want to worry him when he was trying to save all of them. John also asked his father if they were going to die. His father tried to assure him they wouldn’t to which he bravely replied that they didn’t mind dying as long as they could all be together. In spite of her heavy injuries, Sue also made them a card with funny caricatures and with the message that she loved them a lot, and that she was hoping for the best.

 
 

2. The family set for sail in July, 1976. For the past 16 years, they had practised sailing in British waters during their leisure time to prepare them for the long trip.

 

3. On January 2^nd morning, the storm had turned nasty, with gigantic waves around the boat. At around 6 p.m., an enormous wave towered over the boat and struck it with an explosive sound. The captain was thrown overboard and was about to drown. Another wave straightened the capsizing boat and his lifeline pulled the captain back on deck. He was tossed around the main deck; he got several broken ribs and broken teeth. In spite of it, he hung onto the wheel trying to steer the ship over the waves until his wife, Mary took over. After this, he managed to stretch canvas and secure waterproof hatch covers across the gaping holes in the boat to prevent more water getting in. He then used several pumps to pump out the water inside the cabins.
