One of the first of the UKs post war qualified examiners, tells ten true stories after 40 years as a sailing and navigation instructor, yacht broker, charter yacht operator, and consultant maritime adviser. The action takes place in European waters including the Mediterranean, North and West Africa, and even China. The tales combine stories having excitement, with sometimes the unbelievable, often with humour, and with sketches to illustrate the text. The book will enthral all, even if only with a vague interest in the sea. Written for all ages, from a youngster just starting to sail, to an ex-skipper, sitting on the foreshore, gazing across the waves, or someone just plain interested. Be reassured that the leisure boat world has changed so much, there will never be another book like this. A hardcover version will shortly be available.

Throughout the known galaxy, from Deep Space Nine™ to the New Frontier, from the Delta Quadrant to the bridge of the Starship Enterprise™, the sudden reactivation of the Gateways has destabilized interstellar relations between planets and cultures previously separated by countless light-years.
