Overview

During the eighteenth century, many men died young; trying to provide for their families. Working on merchant ships was a common way of life. Sailors took all the risks, while the merchants claimed the profits. Grandpa wanted a better way of life for his family. He bought a seaworthy 150 foot galleon, to start his own business. With a crew of thirty nine, comprised entirely of family members, he chose to sail to uncharted islands in search of trade items.

Tribute is given to all females. Special ceremonies are created to honor them. The young women mature both mentally and physically. Even the little girls seem to know things the men do not. On the voyage into the uncertain, coconuts, bananas, spices, nuts, oysters and many other trade items were gathered. A not so friendly meeting with a band of pirates, hinted that there might be buried treasure on the island. With the help of friendly dolphins, a treasure is uncovered.

The crew of the Samtilla witness a strange light floating over a bog at night and a cave that hums. Old sea tails are told and some seem to come true, when believed in strong enough. Hazards and tense moments await the crew. Mystery and near tragedy occurs throughout the voyage.
