     Its not easy for people to sail around the world in quite small boats. Sometimes the weather gets bad. Accidents can happen easily and quickly.

Sea water came in and the boat soon went down. Luckily these people had another small boat-a lifeboat,so they all got into the lifeboat. They lived in the boat for many days.
