À propos de cet audio

In early May of 2005, Captain Tom Tighe and first mate, Loch Reidy, of the sailboat Almeisan welcomed three new crew members, two men and a woman, for a five-day voyage from Connecticut to Bermuda. While Tighe and Reidy had made the journey countless times, the rest of the crew were paying passengers learning about offshore sailing—and looking for adventure. Four days into their voyage, they got adventure but nothing that they had expected or had any training to handle.

A massive storm struck, sweeping Tighe and Reidy from the boat. The remaining crew members somehow managed to stay aboard the vessel as it was torn apart by wind and water. Overboard! follows the simultaneous desperate struggles of boat passengers and the captain and first mate fighting for their lives in the sea.

Ce que les critiques en disent

“I was frightened or astonished by every page of this beautifully told story of raging elements and human survival. And then the tale is ultimately and heartrendingly inspirational. You will not be able to put this book down.” (Dodge Moran, first American to sail solo, nonstop, around the globe)

Wow, if this story doesn’t inspire the sailor on so many levels, I don’t know what will. So well told, the story so gripping that we ended up listening to the whole thing in one session. Sailors and non sailors alike will listen in awe at the resilience and strength of the human experience. So much to be said about the experience of these five sailors. A must read or rather listen. You will not be disappointed.

The BEST survival at sea story ever!

Amazing book with excellent balance between people background and story. Write for sailors with proper language but also non sailors or beginners should enjoy it.

I love a true account of sea adventure ever since reading “And the Sea Will Tell”. This book Overboard is the best I’ve read since then. I found myself holding my breath through most of the telling. So fabulous! Thank you to the author and narrator! And thank you Audible for the gift of a very worthy listen!

Favourite story theme.

What a harrowing tale (or several, actually). Well written, took you right to the middle of the cold, dark, stormy waters. Survival miracles. A good listen.
