Reckoning at Sea: Eye to Eye With a Gray Whale

by Max J. Young, Marti Smiley Childs, Jeff March

Overview

As Max Young sailed alone on a dark, moonless night about 60 miles off the coast of Mexico, his life was about to change forever. On June 12, 2012, a gray whale breached and hit the portside stern of his 50-foot sailboat, Reflections, causing irreparable damage. While the three bilge pumps struggled to keep up with the incoming seawater, Max was racing against time to save the boat and his own life. Reckoning at Sea: Eye to Eye With a Gray Whale is a true story about a man living his dream of circumnavigating the world, and his harrowing rescue just 490 miles short of his final destination.

Editorial Reviews

You did a wonderful job telling the harrowing story about a man who loved the sea. The description of Max Young's 12-year circumnavigation is interesting, and I learned a lot about countries I had never heard of before.
