Philip Bishop is a family man based in the Hills district of Sydney with wife Karen and three children. UK-born Phil is an avid traveller and playing rugby brought him to Australia after a season in New Zealand way back in 1994. After several careers he has penned his life experiences to help create the characters of Skipper and Rocky who perform adventurous rescues and help teach about the environment, morals and social responsibility. Reading to his young children motivated him to develop the story lines that not only teach but create an awareness of the dangers associated with all water activities. With so many drownings around the world daily, if we can save one life or help protect a species through the series, we have accomplished a great achievement. ARE YOU READY FOR ADVENTURE? BORN READY, SKIPPER!

Set in the coral of The Great Barrier Reef, located on the East Coast of Australia, two Trigger fish that are notoriously short tempered have an altercation that should have been resolved with words. Instead when the brother lashes out and swims away his safety takes a turn for the worst.

Instead of being responsible for his actions and facing the consequences, he decides to run away and soon finds himself lost. Quick thinking by his sister certainly saves the day as she knows exactly where to find help; this is where Skipper and Rocky, the local Coast Guard and his trusty boat, Rocky, come to the rescue, with the aid of Skipper's belt which provides him with special tools to assist in all types of rescues.
