YA
Matt and John meet wealthy Portuguese teens Driana, Stef, and JoJo in Montauk. Stef impulsively decides on a little midnight windsurfing; the others borrow a poorly maintained motorboat to bring her back to shore. A string of mishaps turns this into a marine variant on the classic wilderness survival adventure. As tensions rise, the teens' backstories are seamlessly woven into the plot.
