Description

Francis Chichester's solo Atlantic crossing in 1962 was an extraordinary feat of seamanship and endurance. In this gripping account, he recounts his perilous journey across the North Atlantic, battling gales, icebergs, and fog to reach his destination.

Chichester's remarkable story is one of human determination and ingenuity, as he used a small battery-operated radio-telephone to stay in touch with Britain during his voyage. Edited by Yachting Editor J.R.L. Anderson, this book offers a unique insight into Chichester's adventures.

A testament to the power of the sea and the human spirit, Atlantic Adventure is a compelling read that will keep you engaged until the very end.
