Salty Stories from the Chair

The narrative features a blend of fictional club discussions tailored for novice sailors, accompanied by poetic reflections on sailing. It includes a true account of a challenging 300-mile journey against strong headwinds while instructing a beginner on sailing techniques. The story culminates with a recounting of a solo sailing expedition around Britain in 1990, where the author navigated with a self-designed rig, all while raising funds for the Macmillan Cancer Relief charity.
