Re: M_Boats: Reading Material

Hi David, I second that.... Tristan Jones and his adventures sailing are great books to read. He gets the wildest ideas, and then carries them out: to sail in the lowest sea on earth and the highest. The lowest was the Dead Sea in Israel, and the highest was the Titticacca Lake in Peru. From the Titticacca Lake he then heads down the Amazon - with something like a 30 mile portage; rollers under the keel and doing it the hard way until he gets to the Amazon. Obviously, it is another Tristan Jones circumnavigation. A great story and ideal reading for winter evenings. Connie
