A Day out on a Fishing Boat

On Saturday the 14th of August a man named Christopher Wilde and his girlfriend Jessica Olsan,
went out on a fishing trip to the sea. They were both happy. The day was brilliant, but then drips of rain poured down with anger. The weather had gone from brilliant to terrible.

They were traveling at 21 knots. But then they heard a big clutter. As they walked to the back of the boat they noticed that the motor had disappeared. They were passed the lifeguard flags. They were beyond the middle of the ocean, heading for disaster. The sign read DANGER BEWARE!!!!.

The boat was swaying from left to right. Luckily Jessica had dialed the Westpac helicopter rescue.They were on their way. As soon as they arrived one of the crew members safely got down on a rope. He held Jessica and the other crew members pulled up the rope. The helicopter was trying to keep its balance but the rain kept on smashing into the helicopter. Now that Jessica was saved she was crying really hard. Then one of the crew members went back down to get Christopher.

They were both safe in the helicopter. The boat crashed into huge rocks. The helicopter went back to the helicopter base. They both thanked the helicopter members for their kind help.

A few days later they returned to the helicopter base and thanked their rescuers. They gave them red and yellow flowers and a large box of chocolates.
