Survive The Savage Sea by Dougal Robertson

After their yacht is holed by killer whales in the Pacific, a family and a young crewman are left adrift in a dinghy and inflatable life raft with minimal supplies. Over 38 harrowing days, they survive by catching fish and turtles, collecting rainwater, improvising gear, and carefully rationing resources while facing storms, injuries, and isolation. The account highlights their ingenuity, resilience, and evolving group dynamics as they drift across vast ocean miles toward an unexpected rescue.
