Synopsis: In February of 1952, one of the worst storms to ever hit the East Coast struck New England, damaging an oil tanker off the coast of Cape Cod and literally ripping it in half. On a small lifeboat faced with frigid temperatures and 70-foot high waves, four members of the Coast Guard set out to rescue more than 30 stranded sailors trapped aboard the rapidly-sinking vessel.

It's a suicide mission.

We must take the stage port 36383.

It takes a little longer. But we'll get at least outside the port.

Success, Chief.

Let Gouthro Livesey and fishing pier. - Yes sir.

no disgusts me, Gus. You should not even be here.

Why should you always make us ridiculous, Richie?

It is not our fault that does not go with the explosions.

It's out anyway. - Get some. That was a year ago.

Get some.

Nobody had that day sail on the sandbar. - Bangs did.

Actually, Richie. It is not navigate the sandbar.

No, he takes 36383 beautiful protected bay.

Bernie, no matter what you think Richie ...

Nickerson Bangs wie ook give.

No one could have saved the men.

Sometimes, people die, Bernie.

Here we go.

Hang on. Easy, now.

I have it. - Elevation.

One two. Everything now.

Three.

Tie, guys. I have it.

It's okay. We now have a tiller. Let us down in the shallows.

Brown and others are preparing to launch the lifeboats.

They think it's their best hope.

We need everyone now. - They hold the lifeboats.

What are you trying to do this, Sybert? - Get off of him.

Are you trying to kill us?

Slow down the speed. Stand up.

Are you crazy. - He just saved your life.

The ship is in pieces. He has gone. Enough.

That ship is too small for this sea.

And this ship is sinking at nightfall.

Everyone wants to live here ...

and that can only happen if we let it run aground.

We put a hold on and look forward to a coast.

I need four men working in the emergency rudder pulley.

I have four men needed to pump back to control ...

and the rest of you represents a line with cubes together ...

and communicates with the engine room.

And someone keeps blowing the whistle.

You heard him, boys. Walk. Come on.

It sounds like you're the man, Sybert.

I hope we do not kill.

I saw a tug boat. Heard the whistle.

A distress signal. 45 minutes ago.

From my house.

The wind blows from the south, and in those circumstances ...

I think they will float in this direction, and each of the dune.

You can not come from Mercer, Bernie.

She is the address of Nantucket ...

that means moving to the northwest, right?

I know what I heard. I know what I saw.

Okay then.

How about going to the back of the station and investigate?

He only spoke of Boston.

With a plane ...

with the rear of the tanker Pendleton seen 8 km east of here.

Two tankers broken in a day. That must be a record.

Boston and Nantucket have all sent ships to Mercer.

They never survive in this climate.

Webber. Put together a team. Take that 36 500 and go ...

and find the back of Pendleton. You got it?

Yes sir.

Do you want to warm up with some coffee?

What?

What Carl is trying to say ...

This is not about Landry. - Of course.

Eight men died that night.

You, Gus and Masachi could not even get out of there. Why do you think you can now?

You know the sandbar at this point, anyway, Bernie? - If.

That man does not know what he is doing. He sends you to death.

You will not reach the sandbar Chatham on a day like this.

You can not stay afloat halftime ship.

Mr. Stello, in the Coast Guard to say: '' You have to go. ''

But they do not tell you to come back.

That's the law, you know.

Bernie, you better get lost before you get too far.

Do not worry about me, Mr. Ryder.

I can not lose here. I know these waters well enough.

How I can lose?

No, Bernie. What Dave is trying to say ...

is that you have to sail around the harbor, say you tried, but could not.

Dank je, Mr. Ryder.

However, Mr. Stello, I will do my best to get there.

I do not know if it works, but I'm trying.

I assume that Richie does? Who else?

I do not know, Gus. You can barely lift his head.

Who is going to take it anymore, Bernie? Fitz is the only technology buff remains.

And it is only the third grade, and lacks experience.

I go. Yes I can do it.

That is, I can do it. You can not go.

You're as sick as a dog, Gus. - You're right, Gus.

One more.

Someone has to go there and rescue guys, right?

That is why it is registered. I think this is my chance.

Sailor Ervin Maske, Stonehorse lightship.

The pumps can not keep up.

Three more feet until they lose those engines.

Kun je volgooien the boiler?

You're crazy if you think you can control with ropes and hand tiller.

You have a better idea? I know.

There are. A sandbar about a mile.

We can save.

Helm, 15 degrees to port. Half the speed if we want to achieve.

, Turn 80 degrees on the compass to 3.10.

Helm, 15 degrees to port. Half speed. 80 degrees at 3:10 of the compass.

15 degrees to port. Half speed. 80 degrees at 3:10 of the compass.

Helm, 15 degrees to port. Half speed. 80 degrees at 3:10 of the compass.

Helm, 15 degrees to port. Half speed. 80 degrees at 3:10 of the compass.

Dank je, Eldon.

Okay, guys. Now pull. Draw, come on.

Tell me bring the boat to a bigger boat.

Have you ever been in a rescue mission? - Do not.

Usually paint chips. Sometimes I cook for the children.

Amazing.

Take it. Ervin, Yes.

Richie, the fall of the aanmeerlijn as soon as possible.

The last known position of Pendleton is here.

When we get to that bar, I believe that the current ...

she must have driven by here. This is 9 km from us.

So you think that Bernie can take us beyond the sandbar this?

I've never seen anything like it.

Yes, just make sure we do not run, that's all.

The force of the waves on the sand, you can pick ...

and run.

There is no way to survive. That's a vortex.

Fitz, it's okay? - Test it.

Let the lines go. - The lines are loose.

Bernie, Gus is left? - Miriam, what are you doing here?

He has gone? - Yes, Cluff fired him.

I want to talk to him.

How? - Cluff.

His commanding officer. Where is?

I have to figure out where Bernie. I worry about him.

We were getting married.

Miriam, this is not what the other girls. Or women.

They do not come here, and they do not.

So?

If you wish, you can expect here. Listen to what is going on.

Sit down.

The tide is rising. Later we went through the bank.

We need to give hard. - Yes, there is no other way.

Golf.

Feel that? They drift. We are the lost helm.

Let's get to slow down, otherwise never get to shore.

Close the valves, stop propulsion. Let's isolate the boiler.

Let's grab everything you have.

I still say, Bouloo. This boat just bad luck.

It has nothing to do with luck.

Chatham train station, this is the CG-36500. Can you hear me?

This station is Chatham. 36500, what is your location through?

Chatham train station, to go long on Morris Island.

Towards the sandbar Chatham. About.

What does it mean to go to the sandbar? - Miriam, do not do this to yourself.

Why not?

Why not, Gus?

When I'm with him, I want to know.

You're the girl with the bearskin, right? - Yes I am.

You wanna tell me what you feel?

Cliffs on sandbar that are never twice in the same place.

The flood moved ...

and tilt, while in the cliff face, or stuck on the sandbar.

When you crash out against the sandbar.
