"A Sail and Tale of an Emotional Rescue" chronicles the thrilling and dramatic experiences of author Sam Phillis and his 30-foot sailing sloop named the Emotional Rescue. Phillis initially preferred the safe enclosure of freshwater, but some dramatic events in his life, and the distant crashing waves of the Atlantic seawater, compelled him to set sail down the Atlantic Intracoastal Waterway. Through many tribulations on ocean and in life, Phillis emerges to tell his amazing tale of survival.
