Hello Sailor - A Year Spent Adrift and All At Sea

Chasing a Childhood Sailing Dream. From the award-winning author of 'The Hour' comes the funniest book about messing about in boats since Jerome K Jerome... Yacht racing - a world of privilege and money, beautiful women, bronzed men, and Simon le Bon explaining that he used to be in a band. It's not like that for everyone. Somewhere much, much further down the ladder it all looks very different. As a teenager, Michael Hutchinson raced tiny plywood dinghies on Belfast Lough. Turning pro was his only dream. Then, at 18, he gave up. 'Missing the Boat' is the story of his comeback season .
