Plot While sailing from Prince Rupert to their home in Ketchikan, Alaska, the Barton family (siblings Wendy, Krista and Billy and their father Eddie) lose their boat in a storm and get stranded on an island. The plot concerns the family going to extreme lengths to survive. Billy builds a raft and they attempt to sail to safety but they don't get far. Eddie and Billie head off to seek help while the two daughters try to keep warm under the remains of their boat's sail. Eddie and Billy find their way to a cabin on the mainland but can't raise help. On day 23 they are able to return to the island and find that the girls are alive. Eddie and Wendy have frostbitten feet but all in the family survive and they are able to return to Ketchikan.
