About this listen

Beginning in the 1960s, this audiobook tells of the real-life adventures of the author as a boy. Encouraged by his parents to become more independent, Peter decided to see how far he could get in his family's small open dinghy, Calypso.

Calypso was a wayfarer, a small and very popular class of open dinghy - a boat designed for pottering around coastlines. But along with the occasional brave crewmate, Peter managed to sail her across the Channel, through the Bay of Biscay, down the French canals and into the Mediterranean, then up into the North Sea and the Baltic to Oslo, living aboard for three months at a time.

Brimming with adventure, a classic design for life.

Written with understatement, this is as much a story of seizing life, as it is a classic tale of sailing the doughty, sprightly Wayfarer. The author clearly lives as he sails, sure footed, good humoured with a calm forward surge toward the elements, work, and friendships. Many adventures (which themselves may form books on their own) are referenced, but untold. Wonderful stuff.
