 Answering

it. Here are insights into the social as well as
nautical reality of fitting out, the comfort of highly
detailed plans, the norm of impulsive decisions, the
inside story of life with a crew, coping with unexpected
gales and calms, the live-or-die decision to keep
watches or not and the ports from Spain to Tobago via
the Atlantic islands and west Africa
