OverviewThis true and gripping narrative takes you aboard Restless, a 29 ft. sloop, with Richard and Bonnie Byhre sailing to the South Pacific from San Francisco. You will share moments of drama aboard Restless as she is caught in a catagory-3 hurricane off Mexico and miraculously survives as she is drawn through the eye of the storm. Despite 120mph winds and 50ft seas, Restless survives to reach Tahiti only to be tragically shipwrecked later on a lonely Tongan island. Friendly natives take them in and nurse them back to health only to realize that the village Chief is reluctant to let them leave.
