“crossing the Atlantic under sail remains one of the most fulfilling ways possible to spend a month or so of your precious allotment of time.”
John Kretschmer, Sailing a Serious Ocean

“Carl’s concept of freedom had come to be embodied by a mariner in a storm, wholly responsible for himself, accountable to no one else, asking no quarter from the sea, measuring his worth by his immediate actions.”
John Kretschmer, At the Mercy of the Sea: The True Story of Three Sailors in a Caribbean Hurricane
