A violent tropical storm hit, sweeping the catamaran miles off course and ultimately destroying it. Several passengers clung to debris overnight, washing up on a tiny desert island.
~ Dante Robinson, Captain of the Catamaran (Jim Leard) appeared to have suffered a concussion in the disaster. Other than a whistle, he did not have any rescue communications.
