Stuck in a corporate job rut and an unraveling marriage, Roz Savage realized that if she carried on as she was, she wasn't going to end up with the life she wanted.

To the Sea Again: Classic Sailing Stories
ISBN: 9780762796489 / Angielski / Miękka / 296 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Few people would want to test their mettle in an ice-encrusted boat with Ernest Shackleton, sail the Straits of Magellan with Joshua Slocum, or watch with Owen Chase as an angry whale sends his ship to the bottom, thousands of miles from the nearest land. But it's quite another thing to read these true accounts while settled into a favorite chair. Shackleton and Chase persevered in the face of travails that would have given even Job pause. Their stoic accounts are stronger and more dramatic for their total lack of affection, their frankness, and their lack of ego. Their gripping stories are...

The Impractical Boat Owner: Tales and Trials from Years of Floundering Afloat
ISBN: 9781472944849 / Angielski / Miękka / 112 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is a book with no practical purpose whatsoever.

But it will entertain – his light but observational writings tap the rich well of all those things that sailors know but few dare admit. The Impractical Boat Owner is a collection of Dave’s columns for Practical Boat Owner magazine, expanded for the book, and with additional 'Lessons Not Learned' hints and tips boxes, all accompanied by Jake Kavanagh's wonderful cartoons. Taking us...

Unser erstes eigenes Boot war eine H-Jolle, mit der wir ab 1976 viele Fahrten auf der Elbe und einige Male auch Urlaub auf der Ostsee machten.

Zwei Saisons hatten wir den Jollenkreuzer, dann kauften wir unsere erste grossere Yacht, eine acht Meter lange...
