This vintage book offers the reader an authentic account of life at sea, with stories of long nights spent with only the moon as company, fierce battles with the omnipotent elements, the beauty of secluded island ports, and the perpetual adventure that comes with a life spent upon the waves. This book is highly recommended for those with a love for the sea, and would make for a fantastic addition to any bookshelf. Many old books such as this are becoming increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing "Blue Water" now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on sailing.
