Carlos Torres agreed to guest host his aunt's Crossing the Bar podcast on a whim. That's how he'd run most of his life to date, so why not. Petty officer Sarah Goodwin fought long and hard to achieve the rank of US Coast Guard Surfman. It made her the best driver that the National Motor Lifeboat School has trained in years. Carlos joins her on a training ride, that turns into a desperate rescue in the treacherous waters over the Columbia River Bar. A rescue that charts a new life's course for them both.
