Chapter 2

Buffer called out to her, "Ma'am. We've got everyone aboard. We're ready to go."

"Let's go"

"Aye, aye Ma'am"

They all got into the boat and pulled away from the vessel. There were 11 people on the boat, so everyone was squashed up. There were five people from the other boat. They were watching their rescuers silently. There were two children with them. One of them shifted to get into a more comfortable position just as a huge wave came crashing down onto the boat. The child was pushed out of the boat. Kate, being the closest person to the girl, reached out to try and catch her without upsetting the boat. Unfortunately she wasn't that lucky. Another wave came up and pushed the boat off course. Kate tumbled out of the boat but managed to grab the child.

Buff took immediate action; he turned the boat around and tried to get closer. After a few minutes trying, Kate managed to push the child back into the boat. She was about to get pulled up when another wave pushed her back in to the water. Buff turned the boat around again and tried to get closer to Kate but the sea was getting rougher by the minute and kept pushing the boat further away. Kate swam towards the boat as hard as she could. She just managed to grab hold when another wave crashed down upon them.

She gave Buffer the thumbs up as she held on. Her top half was in the boat but her bottom half was still in the water. She just held on tight because if she moved she'd fall back into the sea. It took them 15 minutes to get back to HMAS Hammersley and Kate's arms were aching. As soon as they got into the shelter of Hammersley the wind dropped a bit. Someone pulled Kate back into the boat just before they got the pulled out of the water.

We're safe at last was Kate's thought as they were pulled onto the ship.

Everyone on board the little boat was freezing but none more so than Kate and the little girl. The rescued were the first to board HMAS Hammersley. The rest of the crew followed. They all quickly got below deck and out of the rain which was getting harder by the minute.
