The first leg of the journey passed pleasantly as we sailed down the West Coast of Africa to Cape Town . Before heading East , we took on two crewmen - American Larry Vigil and Swiss Herb Seigler to help us tackle the world 's roughest sea .
The crucial days for the family
yes , i am alright
are you alright suzanne?
we're not afraid to die ..... if we are together
The crewmen started pumping out water and settled to make necessary repairs to save the boat from sinking . meanwhile we I went to sue and Jonathan they both are so brave that Jonathan told me that we are not afraid to die if we are together . Jonathan courage and sue bravery instead of her bumped head injured inspired me to fight the sea and protect the family.
