Description
Survival against all odds in the world's most notorious waters. Miles Smeeton recounts his harrowing experience sailing his 46-ft Bermuda ketch through Cape Horn, following the tracks of old sailing clippers. The story is one of survival, but also provides hard-learned lessons for other intrepid sailors. In clear and simple language, Smeeton shares his experiences, offering insight into where the limits of safety lie. A gripping true account that has been praised by Nevil Shute in his foreword.
