Product Description
Sailing Solo Alone is a true story about a guy who is a little bored with life and seeking some kind of excitement, buys a yacht.
Three weeks later and with all of two hours sailing experience under his belt, our hero (for want of a better word) decides to take his 18ft over-grown dingy for a 40 mile trip around the North Kent coast.
The Sea has one attempt at killing him. The boat manages to stay upright, more by luck than anything else. He even finds a safe haven for the night. Does he stay there? No!…
He actually sets out to sea at three o'clock in the morning. If you felt the need to be charitable, you may have said, it was quite a nice night for a bit of a sail. Then again, this was the North Sea. The North Sea in October!...
Leaving the pier heads and the safety of the harbour. It was as dark as doomsday out there... And only going to get darker.
It wouldn't be long before he realised buying a yacht called 'Solo', may not have been one of his better ideas.
All a little late by then...
