BOAT, PEOPLE
and ME – First Voyage
Volume I in the
Boat, People
& Me Series
A love story set in an adventure, on
a boat. It is the story of two travellers from
opposite sides of the world who never, ever,
intended to find themselves at sea in a small
sailing boat in a more than hurricane strength
storm.
"Fantastic! Have just
finished reading after neglecting/ being late for
everything else I was supposed to be doing this
weekend... ."
Julienne
The BOAT, PEOPLE
and ME Series of books by Anthony Howarth, is, of course, a
true life adventure, and they're quality travel
books.

Introduction
Boat is pinned over, held,
quite literally, in the grip of
the wind at about forty-five
degrees. Not rocking or
oscillating. Held as if in a
vibrating but rigid clamp.
The waves appear to be twice the
height of our mast. Breaking
water curls clear over Boat.
The next wave shreds in the wind
generator’s blades and drenches
the satellite navigation antenna,
mounted at the stern. A wave
passes way over my head. Then
another – it fills the cockpit!
I remember thinking, as I sat in
the water, that the sea was
remarkably warm for February.
