Following a significant financial windfall, a recent widower embarks on a trans-continental holiday to distract from his aching heart. When he and other passengers are abandoned aboard a sinking yacht, they battle to keep the vessel upright and make it to shore.

Already way out of his comfort zone, Rick is forced to rely on new friends to keep his head above water.
