The book on the other hand is well worth reading. The tension is all set
with the meteorologists and the development of the storm - recommended.

The book is also partly fiction, particularly in regard to the fate of
the small yacht portrayed.

See http://world.std.com/~kent/satori/ for the true story. The boat
survived, was recovered and hauled off a beach, repaired and sailed
for many years by its skipper until being sold. It's still sailing
today.

This has come up over and over. The book is not fiction. What happened
to Satori after the storm has nothing to do with the book, which
describes the CG tug struggling at 3 knots to get there.
