Taking Terrapin Home: A Love Affair With a Small Catamaran.

Rate this book
An exciting account of crossing the Atlantic in a small sailboat by Mathew Wilson, a noted lecturer who used his adventure as the subject for this, his first book. Terrapin's route took her across the English Channel, through France to the Mediterranean before turning to cross the Atlantic. Taking Terrapin Home is a look at one of the great sailing routes of antiquity through fresh eyes, a cruising guide for anyone thinking of taking the same trip, and checklist for anyone who wants to fit out a boat properly. There are no heroics. This is not a survival manual. This is a good story.
