A novice at sailing - an ocean awaiting. This book offers a glimpse of what it is like to sail a vast ocean on a small yacht. It is how four men, all over fifty and with limited sailing experience, came together to sail a forty-two foot yacht across the Atlantic Ocean as part of the 2013 Atlantic Rally for Cruisers. It tells of their aspirations, preparations, observations, consternations and celebrations. It is written from the perspective of the novice of the crew. As the title suggests, the author combines the excitement of sailing with gentle humour, and throws in a smattering of poetry and history too. Whether you are a serious sailor or just mildly interested, To Sea Oar Knot To Sea will make you smile, and may even stir you to sail an ocean yourself one day.
