The crew land on a tropical island and hunt for vital food and water. However, on board their tiny boat the pressures of hunger and cramped conditions lead to talk of mutiny.

The 8 remaining men leave the island on the most perilous leg of their journey - a 1600 mile passage through the treacherous Coral Sea. With no wind, rotting food and a nasty case of cabin fever the threat of mutiny still hangs over them.

The men embark upon the final leg of their journey, a 1,200 mile voyage to the island of Timor - but in blistering temperatures they face debilitating, life-threatening dehydration.
