People have sailed the world in quite small boats. It is not an easy thing to do. Sometimes the weather gets bad. That can be the end of everyone in it. Accidents can happen easily and quickly.

One family once had an accident with some big fish. The fish swam under their boat and bit holes in it. Seawater came in, of  course ,and the boat soon sank. However, these people had another small boat--a lifeboat ,and they all got into that. They lived and hoped for many days. They ate and slept ,and they always hoped. At last a ship found them.

How do people live in a very small lifeboat? Perhaps for weeks or months? They must be strong in every way. They must have hope--they must want to live. But you can’t eat and drink hope. You can’t drink seawater. Drink a lot of seawater--and you will quickly die. Sailors can drink rainwater. They must catch rainwater in their boat. They must also catch fish and birds for food. Lifeboats do not often carry a cooker, so the sailors can’t cook their food. Raw fish and bird meat is not very nice. But there is no other choice in a lifeboat. The sailors must eat raw food ,or they will die.

What do people think about in a lifeboat? They think about land, a warm bed ,dry clothes, fresh water and food ,food, food.
