Come Hell or High Water, Clare Francis

[Helgafolkboot]

Not only is Clare Francis a great single handed sailor she also writes in a very entertaining style. This unlike her great fiction is a factual account of herOSTAR in 1977 when she was the first woman to finish. Well worth finding the book and reading.

A book I really enjoyed.

Part of my childhood.
I agree, written like a pro writer. Those were heady days of true adventure and she captured it perfectly.
