Sailing Just for Fun: High Adventure on a Small Budget

by A.C. Stock

High adventure on a small budget is Charles Stock's philosophy as he cruises his midget 16-foot gaff-rigged sailing cruiser Shoal Waters on the Thames estuary, with 68,00 miles logged since 1963. No engine, no electronics. The art of pottering taken to its zenith, and happiness achieved with great simplicity. There's a lesson here for all of us who hanker after the South Seas
