On the boat was Lito, her grandpa, her mum who was pregnant, Ivan, luis he is a cop, luis’s girlfriend and seora castillo. But then he got caught by the police so the police shot at them, when they shot it hit the boat and it made holes so they covered it up with their sock. There were some problems like a hurricane and a cargo ship came and made a big wave and pushed them back. They landed at the wrong place and the tourist saw that the mum was pregnant and threw chips,water and pills. So they went off again on the way there Ivan and Isabel was pedalling and then a shark ate Ivan and Isabel jumped back in the boat and Luis shot the shark then more sharks came because of the blood.
