great book

Hi-all
I just picked up this book and am halfway through it. It is HOW TO SAIL AROUND THE WORLD, author is hal roth. Its not a story it is a teaching book and very technical.
I am happy with the book and wanted to pass it along to you fine folks

Dustin

Another book review my dustin.

I read a book called letters from the lost soul. Its by a guy named bob bichen ( yes its pernounced just like it looks)
The book is very fast paced and gives you littel teachings. It is an interesting story, if you like the partying type of people. The auther is a big tatooed motocycle rider, The man who started easy riders magizine. Its a quick read, and I only recomend it for wasting time for you will gain littel knowledge about circumnavigation.

Cheers:
dustin
