"So here are the dramatic highlights of a quarter century in three boats, EGREGIOUS, a 37-foot utter; CHIDIOCK TICHBORNE, an 18-foot open undecked yawl; and RESURGAM, a 36-foot sloop. In these boats, I made more than three circumnavigations, twice alone, twice setting world records, twice via Cape Horn, which I was the first American to round alone."
His other books OPEN BOAT: ACROSS THE PACIFIC, THE OCEAN WAITS, and STORM PASSAGE are also must reads if you can find them.
Sailing Vessel Long Passages - Down the East Coast and across the Pacific.
Sailing Vessel Prudence - An interesting web site about a sailing trip from Seattle to San Diego, via British Columbia.
Garhauer Marine Equipment - I am very much a repeat customer. Their rigid vangs are great. TATOOSH and now TATOOSH2 have been equipped with them. All the bocks and gear from GARHAUER are top notch and they are great to work with. Highly recommended!
Rigging Only - Good prices and knowlegable folks. Willing to talk about rigging issues and make up whatever you need - the whole rig or just a piece. Get their catalog.
The Canvas Lady - My friend Tanya's place - and they do GREAT work. Made the new sail cover for TATOOSH2 and more work is planned. Lives aboard the sailing vessel WIND LASS.
The Nantucket Clipper Community - TATOOSH was originally named NANTUCKET CLIPPER, and this the site for information about these great boats.
Riley Marine Stainless Products - Took care of the new rim on TATOOSH2's wheel. Very nice work.
