Summary

A first-hand account of the audacious egos, the behind-the-scenes high-jinx, and the wet terror of world-class open ocean racing in the golden days of amateur crews, alongside his ongoing love affair with family cruising on a vintage wooden boat plying the wild and fog-bound coasts of Maine
