Vince B @RT26183706 Sep 20 I was on the boat. Hello This is the son of Silas Duane Boston. Thank you for watching this gripping, well told story of Chris, Peta, my beloved mother Marylou Boston and all the families and loved ones involved. I think RAW did a fine job of presenting this story. There are many details that, due to time constraints, could not be told in this format. There is an in-depth BBC Radio podcast called Paradise on BBC Radio 5, and a couple of books: Nothing Much Happens on a Boat by David Sacks and Dead In the Water by Penny Farmer. I am currently writing my own book told from my perspective. Thank you for the feedback and the questions. To answer a couple questions that might have been unclear, yes, I did try to find the Farmers and the Framptons. All I knew were their names (Dr. Christopher "Chris" Farmer and "Peter" Frampton) and that they lived somewhere in England. You have to remember that this was pre-Internet and pre-Google so you can imagine how difficult it was to find them. Please watch episode 3 and BBC Paradise for more information and case details. I'll try to answer as much as I can here. If you are interested in my book and my story, please let me know. Thank you. Vince Boston See more Read all reviews
