Sailing For Home - ready by Theo Dorgan

What happens when four people, three old sea hands and a novice (the author) cross the Atlantic aboard a 70-foot schooner? Sailing For Home captures the realities of a trans-Atlantic passage, the importance of innumerable small rituals, the challenge of cooking in rough seas, the unspoken understandings that develop between crew members but he also attends to the numinous possibilities of life at sea: the rare vividness of dreams, visits from the ghosts of dead friends.

However, this being a Dahl story, we know that vices such as greed, selfishness and inconsiderateness tend to boomerang back upon the person indulging in them.
