Just finished all three cruise accounts - absolutely great reading. Shard and webster, as Irish circumcisors you will really enjoy the Celtic Fringe rant
Marisca, you feature, of course.

Having no Kindle or whatever I have only read the Amazon taster - I would like to point out that it was not off Rattray Heid, it was west of Whitehills; I had not set out in a F9, it had been a flat calm when I left Fraserburgh; I did not seek aid from the FPV Hirta, they volunteered when I called the coastguard to warn them I was about to loose an uninhabited inflated liferaft; other than that it was all true.
I sailed on Zophiel but once on a longish two-handed round-the-nav-buoys race on the Forth just after one of Martin's returns from Norway. It was enlivened by an extended beat on port tack while I reattached the starboard cap shroud that had gone swing-about.

Linky?

Martin has never been known to let the facts get in the way of a good story.

Well, that said - they are good stories.

There is a free Kindle app for PC

Luckily the complete thing is also available on the web as a *.doc but as Martin, being but a poor academic, is probably relying on the Amazon income I ain't telling where. I note that Martin does not appear to have a high opinion of Bavaria drivers.

The reading experience is better even on a PC with the Kindle app rather than reading something in Word or as a PDF.

Even better on the kindle mac app.

But then everything is better on a Mac
