The Sailing Mystique collects a series of delightful sailing stories culled from a lifetime spent writing about boats and the sea. Beginning with observations about the challenges and rewards of sailing, author Bill Robinson goes on to recount his early days under sail and many wonderful cruising and racing adventures. He also recalls the many boats he's encountered and his favorite cruising areas all over the world, and even imparts a bit of yachting history along the way.
“You can pick this book up at your leisure, turn to almost any page and enjoy reading. In fact, I can imagine re-reading some the articles a year from now. The stories are timeless.” —The ENSIGN
