Young Charlie adores his grandfather Walter. Walter, who is dying, is building a sailing vessel on his farm, far from the sea and seemingly cannot live to see the boat launched. David, Charlie’s father and Walter’s son-in-law lost his wife some time before and has now lost his faith in God as well.
