Owner Reviews, Ratings, Comments and Criticism
If not, read this, then read "The Long Way"- "Reefs" is an excellent prologue. Here is a younger Moitessier, who has no idea yet about a round-the-globe race, or does he? He has many theories of sailing, and only a little philosophy. For those who have read The Long Way, you can see the birth of Moitessier's most famous boat, the Joshua on the horizon, and with it the beginnings of Moitessier's sailing maturity. Touching, sad and funny, this book. Moitessier was not only an excellent sailor, he was an excellent story-teller.
