Beschrijving

In 1920, William Nutting, an adventurous editor of Motor Boat Magazine and seasoned sailor, teamed up with renowned naval architect William Atkin to create a remarkable vessel for an Atlantic crossing. While the official aim was to participate in yacht races off Cowes, England, Nutting and Atkin were driven by a bold ambition to demonstrate that crossing a vast ocean was possible in what was then deemed a small boat. The outcome was Typhoon, a 45-foot ketch that carried Nutting and his companions on a thrilling three-week journey across the North Atlantic, followed by exhilarating racing and cruising in Europe, before ultimately returning to New York via a southern route. This engaging book captures the essence of their adventure, filled with camaraderie and courage. Tragically, four years later, Nutting would meet a different fate at sea in another vessel. (Summary by Alan Dove)
