After years of hardship, medical constraints, and searching for the right boat, the Volante unexpectedly comes into their possession. With their daughter in tow, Joe and Ellen decide to leave everything behind to chase their dream of living and sailing the coast of Mexico.The family embarks on an adventure of a lifetime that takes them deep into a culture that both ignites the imagination and shapes the childhood of 8-year old Isabel. But living on a 42-foot sailboat isn't all it's cracked up to be. Cramped spaces, rough seas, and unscrupulous characters soon have the family realizing that Mexico is as dangerous as it is beautiful.
