Summary
Gary Paulsen takes readers along on his maiden voyage, proving that ignorance can be bliss, but also really stupid and incredibly dangerous. He tells of boats that have owned him-- good, bad, and beloved-- and how they got him through terrifying storms. His spare prose conjures up shark surprises and killer waves, and how it feels to sail under the stars. Falling in love with the ocean set Gary Paulsen on a lifelong learning curve, and readers will understand why his passion has lasted to this day
