Mark remembered only one telephone number the number of his best friend Alex Evans, But Alex wasn't in the Caribbean; he was in Wales. 4,000 miles away! Alex was shopping with his mother when Mark called him. At first, Alex thought Mark was joking but then he realized that his friend was worried and he was telling the truth. Fortunately, Alex works part-time on a lifeboat, so he knew what to do, He made Mark some questions about their exact position in the Caribbean and wrote the details on his hand because he had a pen but he didn't have any paper.
