Description
117 Days Adrift is a harrowing first-hand account of a family's desperate struggle for survival after their yacht sank in the Pacific Ocean. With no rescue in sight, they were forced to take their chances in a rubber raft, where they endured nearly four months of unimaginable hardship.
The Baileys recount their ordeal with remarkable candour, detailing the challenges they faced adapting to alien conditions and the incredible resilience that ultimately kept them alive.
