Finally, the WHOLE story of this famous boat.

I had the opportunity to read the manuscript before publication. It's a fascinating story of how this boat, built in Great Britain, sailed all over the world before finally ending up in Idaho. Yes, it recount's Tristan Jones' adventures with Sea Dart, but it goes far beyond that, telling about the others who have owned the famous boat, both before and after Tristan. There are heros and villains all along the way. It's an amazing story of survival-for the boat! You will believe a sailboat can have a soul.
