Sailing - Adventure - Friendship - Family problems
When fourteen young adults from all around South Africa are chosen for a
crew of a training ship sailing ship from Durban to Mauritius, they
experience more than they had anticipated. Each must master an extensive
range of nautical skills, and also learn to work as a team. Whitton focusses
upon a number of individuals with different family backgrounds in this
multicultural troupe, making the basic plot of an adventure story with
modern-day problems and dreams come to life. (12+)
