The story , ? We're Not afraid to Die - if We Can All Be Together' is a story of extreme and skill exhibited by Gordon Cook , his family and crewmen in a war with water and waves for survival . In July 1976 , the narrator , his wife Mary , son Jonathan and daughter Suzanne set sail from Plymouth , England to the round - the world voyage made 200 years earlier by Captain James Cook . They took the voyage in their professionally built ship , the Wavewalker , accompanied by two experienced sailors ? Larry Vigil , an American , and Herb Seigler , a Swiss , to tackle one of the world's seas ? the Southern Indian Ocean .
The first part of the journey , that is , about 105 , 000 kilometres up to Cape Town passed off very , pleasantly . On the second day out of Cape Town , - they began to strong gales . Gales did not worry the narrator . But the size of the waves was alarming ? up to 15 metres , as high as the main mast . On 25th December , the writer's ship was in the southern Indian Ocean , 3500 kilometres to the east of Cape Town . The family celebrated their new year on board the ship . At dawn on January 2 , the waves were gigantic . Unfriendly weather and waves compelled the sailors to slow their speed , drop storm jib and take other . The danger was so obvious that the sailors completed life - raft drill , attached lifelines and life jackets .
Suddenly at 6 pm , a tremendous explosion shook the Wavewalker and the author was thrown overboard . The ship was about to when another gigantic wave hit it tossing it upright once again . The author was thrown back onto the deck , his head and ribs smashing against the walls . In spite of his injuries , the narrator took of the situation . Somehow he found the wheel , lined up the stem for the next wave and hung on till Mary appeared and took charge of the . Larry and Herb started pumping out water like madmen . The whole starboard side bulged inwards . The narrator managed to cover across the gaps to prevent water from entering the ship . Then came more problems . Their hand pumps stopped working and electric pumps short - circuited . Fortunately , the narrator found a electric pump under the that worked . The entire night was spent in pumping , steering , repairing and sending signals . The narrator checked charts and calculated that Ile Amsterdam , a scientific base , was their only hope .
Sue and Jon were injured but they said that they were not afraid to die if they could all be together . Sue's head was swollen and she had a deep injury . The narrator became more seeing his children's courage . Finally , they reached lie Amsterdam , a island where they were welcomed by 28 . Thus , the collective strength and never failing of the sailors made it possible for them to come out of the jaws of death . Though Jonathan and Suzanne did not do anything to save Wavewalker but their courage , , faith and optimism gave extra strength and persistence to the narrator and his team . The of the strong - willed children is noteworthy in the story .
