Tuesday 'n' me by David Foreman

An unusual and highly personal account of a singlehanded cruise to Brazil, and the subsequent return via St.Helena Island. The story is told in the form of a selection from the personal messages between the solo skipper and his family and close friends, opening a window into the emotions of travelling 15,000 miles alone by sea. The fear when both the ship and crew were severely damaged by lightning, the frustrations of waiting and waiting for replacement parts, the discipline required as each fresh problem arose, the humour, and the self discovery. It tells of the wonderful camaraderie amongst like-minded adventurers, most of whom we would never hear about otherwise. The book is enhanced by a free DVD which records the voyage in colour, sound and movement. You can read the book and see and hear what it felt like. A must for anyone interested in the mind of the lone sailor, or for those who might be contemplating a similar adventure.
