Ice on the Seine near Bougival. Painting by Claude Monet

He was the first man to sail alone in a small boat, ‘Spray’ around the world. He repaired the old boat and started on his historical mission. This is the story of Captain Joshua who braved the torrents of sea all alone.

Barbarous Red Indians had surrounded the ‘Spray’. They were shouting, “Give whatever you have….” The only man visible on the boat ‘Spray’ was replying, “No, no…”. But they were not listening to him. They rowed their boat nearer to ‘Spray’. One of them climbed up to it. He was Black Pedro, a criminal who was wanted by police for murdering many innocent people. He went inside the cabin. Now the owner of the ‘Spray’ got frightened. However, he didn’t lose his mental balance. He disguised himself and fired at their boats. The Red Indians now got frightened. They could see three men on the boat. Black Pedro ran away. The owner of the boat saved himself.
