Captain Charles Mac Fay and Captain Hayne

Captain charles mac fay tries to keep the men calm, but the persistence of the sharks is terrifying them. Mac vay and the other eight men in this group are spread out between three rafts that are lashed together. They are just rectangular flotation devices with thin wooden decks suspended from cargo netting. The decks dangle below the water line, leaving each man waist deep in the ocean. And now they have a problem. Sharks a been circling them for the last hour. Hayne stops swimming and floats on his back under the stars,. He wonders if he'll live long enough to see another sunrise.
