Ten Hours Till Dawn by Michael Tougias

[Swimmer]

This book is about the pilot boat CAN DO that went down during the blizzard of February 78. The book is a pretty good read. At the end of the book the funeral takes place for the man who was caught below deck when the boat went down, his name was Charlie Bucko. Charlies father asked the reverend to read the following Tennyson poem at the funeral titled "Crossing the Bar"
Sunset and evening star,
And one clear call from me!
And may there be no moaning of the bar,
When I put out to sea,

But such a tide as moving seems asleep,
Too full for sound and foam,
When that which drew from out the boundless deep
Turns again home.

Twilight and evening bell,
And after that the dark!
And may there be no sadness of farewell,
When I embark;

For tho' from out our bourne of Time and Place
The flood may bear me far,
I hope to see my Pilot face to face
When I have crossed the bar.
