The Unsinkable

To whoever finds this notebook…

This is what really happened to Jim Hobbins, the boy lost out of Cedar Key. I’m drifting somewhere in the Gulf of Mexico. Out of food. Only a couple sips left of water. And, well… I don't write a lot of stories so I might get my order mixed up. 

Still, don’t let nobody tell it different.

I just hope that whoever finds this notebook also finds the Montauk and figures out how to get it back to my family. 

It's a good boat.
