My ship is so small

Just remembered the title of Ann Davisons book, must have read it years ago. I seem to recall that she lowered her sails at night and just went to sleep. Small boat to do an Atlantic Crossing.

Found this rather interesting article suggesting a restoration in progress in Haines, Alaska, of all places.
