A rainy day encourages Teuila's father to take her out on Oceania, but what will happen when their boat flips and they're left stranded in the Atlantic Ocean?
***
Teuila just wanted a peaceful summer break after her first year at the College of Charleston. However, peace in her family never happens with her father's sailing blood. To grow closer to his little girl, he takes her out on the family's Laser, Oceania, on a rainy day that mimics a special one nineteen years earlier.
When Oceania flips and leaves father and daughter stranded in the Atlantic Ocean, they must work together to return to shore without the buff lifeguard girls running out to rescue them. Teuila has to see past her father's sailing personality and find the one she grew up with before she and her parents ran aground in Charleston Harbor.
With the help of the current, love, and just a little imagination, Teuila and her dad's fight for survival becomes nothing more than a mere Disney Channel movie. Not only that, but Teuila learns a secret-the truth behind why she carries such an unusual name.

Captain: (excitement growing)Aye, fire the X-Tron electromagnetic pulse gun! We need to kill that monster.
[The rail gun fires, sending a powerful, blue, electromagnetic pulse towards the Sea Monster, momentarily stunning it.]
As the sea monster recoiled from the electromagnetic pulse, the crew of the Starlight saw a faint, glimmer of hope. Captain Williams seized the desperate opportunity, barking out orders to his crew.
