A SHORT SUMMARY OF 'A SHIP WRECKED SAILOR'
Valasco and his friends were washed overboard during a storm in thje middle of the Carribean Sea on February 28, 1955. The ship plunged into an abyss and disappeared.
Velasco held tightly to a crate and remained floating. His friends Julio Amador Carabello and Rengifo were shouting for help.
After some time he saw two life rafts. Velasco managed to jump on to one of them. He saw Castillo, Caraballo, Rengifo and Herera trying to reach it. Suddenly Herera disapppeared. Velasco was fightin g the waves and trying to reach Caraballo and Castillo.
However, a huge wave swallowed them.
Velasco held out the oar and tried to save Rengifo. But the wind was blowing against him. He couldn't row and reach him. Suddenly he too sank.
Velasco was left alone in the sea. He felt very disappointed that he had lost his friends. He realised that everything had happened in ten minutes . He waited patiently for someone to come and rescue him.
He did not have food or water. The sun burned his head and his skin was hard. He realised that he had a wound in his knee. However it was cured because of the salt water.
He felt that time was not passing. He did not know what to do alone in the sea. He collected his belongings. There was his watch, a ring and a medal. He had the keys of his locker too, and three business cards. .This went on for ten days until he was rescued.
