The boat turned over as the men jumped into the sea.The water was like ice.The reporter was tired.But he swam toward the beach.He looked for his friends. He saw Billie,the sailor,in front of him,swimming strongly and quickly.The cook was near him.Behind,the captain held on to the overturned boat with his one good hand.Soon,the reporter could swim no longer.A current was carrying him back out to sea.He thought,“Am I going to drown?” But the current suddenly changed and he was able to swim toward the shore.Then he saw a man running along the shore.He was quickly taking off his shoes and clothes. As the reporter got close to the boat,a large wave hit him and threw him into the air over the boat and far from it.When he tried to get up,he found that the water was not over his head,only half way up his body.But he was so tired that he could not stand up.Each wave threw him down,and the current kept pulling him back to sea. Then he saw the man again,jumping into the water.The man pulled the cook to the shore.Then he ran back into the water for the captain.But the captain waved him away and sent him to the reporter.The man seized the reporter’s hand and pulled him to the beach.Then the man pointed to the water and cried,“What’s that?” In the shallow water,face down,lay Billie,the sailor. |
