Omtale fra forlaget
Two 40 year old diaries are brought out of obscurity together with over 600 color slides to reveal the memories of an adventurous voyage of 10,000 nautical miles in a 35-foot sailboat in 1983-84. This is the story of four friends aged 18-20; Hauk Larsen Wahl, Morten Stødle, Erling Kagge and Arne Saugstad who, with limited experience and youthful courage, follow their dream of sailing to the West Indies before today's navigation and communication technology became available.
Will they find their way with a basic course in navigation and a sextant made out of plastic?
Outside which islands did Jeanette VI run aground?
Did they manage to bake bread in Cape Verde and what color was Mick Jagger's house on Mustique?
How did the Norwegian consul in Barbados end up in the doghouse? Where did they follow in the footsteps of Ronald Reagan's fight against communism?
What did they get in return for a package of crispbread from a Norwegian multi-millionaire in Bermuda?
Did the Bay of Biscay live up to its ominous reputation one day in May? Last, but not least, what reflections are made 40 years after the voyage?
