Uncharted Waters
From the book jacket:
A month in a seaside cabin with a favorite uncle--most teenaged boys would be thrilled. But not Jonah. He's too busy keeping secrets.
First, there's the letter addressed to his parents from his English teacher. If Jonah's parents had seen that letter they would have cancelled their own trip and Jonah's visit to Uncle Nate.
Second is Jonah's secret reason for not joining the local swim team. He feels terrible lying to his uncle, but he can't reveal the fears that are holding him back.
And finally, Jonah convinces his little sister to keep yet another secret, one that gets him into a lot more than he bargained for during his month at the shore with Uncle Nate...

That's me in the wetsuit, with my friend Marilyn, checking out the coastal salt pond for my Oceanography research years ago.
