283 | Deep Water & Shoal | W. A. Robinson | Part 2

from The Mariner’s Library · host Chris Stanmore-Major

This book is the chronicle of W.A. Robinson setting off on his 32 footer 'Svaap' from Panama,  taking two years to circumnavigate the world in the interwar years.  It is a wonderfully written and diligent account by a sailor who although initially advertising himself as 'not a writer', goes on to produce the most wonderfully vivid and heartfelt story, that even now, nearly a hundred years later, still stirs the soul of the sailor to adventures beyond the West horizon.
