Author Information

Peter Rodgers learnt to sail in dinghies, has done three Fastnets, two as navigator, and has cruised his own boats for many years, as well as crewing and chartering in the Med and elsewhere. He passed his Offshore Yachtmaster before electronics took over the chart table. David Fairhall has enjoyed sailing for more than half a century in everything from Dragons to Thames barges. He has raced offshore, including skippering a boat in the Fastnet Race, and made numerous transatlantic ocean deliveries. The late Mike Peyton remains widely regarded as the greatest yachting cartoonist.
