40,000Nm,  a circumnavigation of the world, completed double-handed, in a decked in, dug-out, red cedar canoe. The bare facts on the page already seem impossible. There is only one sailor who holds a candle to Capt. Slocum, and that is Capt. Voss. If you don't know who that is, don't worry, I didn't know either until I read this book. Now, I can't stop stop wondering how on earth he did what he did, and realizing once again, that modern sailing truly stands on the shoulders of giants. I invite you to learn with me, the incredible story of one of the almost forgotten fathers of offshore sailing.   If you would like to listen to more about sailing, the sea and regular discussions about safety & seamanship; check out The Mariner Podcast, available on all podcast platforms. https://podcasts.apple.com/in/podcast/the-mariner/id1710667118 To support the production of this material please consider heading over to Patreon. where for $5 a month you can get access to more audio books, videos and discussion. https://www.patreon.com/themariner  Check out also, The Mariner Youtube Channel - where we have gear reviews, how to videos, seamanship training videos and on the water reports from all over the world.

When I think of Adlard Coles, I think of the publishing house, but the fact is that the person behind that same institution was first off a small craft sailor just like you and I. This, his first book, is the tale of his first ever, long-distance cruise. What a career lay ahead of him! Despite not really knowing exactly what they were doing, Coles and his crew ventured across the storm-tossed North Sea and into the sand bar nightmare of the Zuider Zee & Frisian Islands. Unperturbed, they then crossed into the Baltic Sea, finally fetching themselves up in Copenhagen. Whist the voyage alone, in a 20ft yacht is noteworthy enough, Coles' narrative gives a unique glimpse also into the bubbling cauldron of unrest, that was sweeping Europe at this time, exactly 101 years ago.   If you would like to listen to more about sailing, the sea and regular discussions about safety & seamanship; check out The Mariner Podcast, available on all podcast platforms. https://podcasts.apple.com/in/podcast/the-mariner/id1710667118 To support the production of this material please consider heading over to Patreon. where for $5 a month you can get access to more audio books, videos and discussion. https://www.patreon.com/themariner  Check out also, The Mariner Youtube Channel - where we have gear reviews, how to videos, seamanship training videos and on the water reports from all over the world.
