Description
The Tzu Hang's perilous journey into the Southern Ocean in December 1956 is a testament to the enduring power of human endurance and the sea. In this gripping account, Miles Smeeton recounts the harrowing experiences of the crew as they faced treacherous weather conditions and equipment failures. As the 46-foot yacht battled against the elements, its three-man crew fought for survival in one of the most unforgiving environments on Earth. With no safety net to fall back on, their resolve was tested to the limit. This gripping narrative is a worthwhile read for anyone interested in the history of small boats under sail and the men who dare to venture into the unknown.
