"Yachting Monthly's" Further Confessions pdf epub mobi txt 电子书 下载 2024
'Worse things happen at sea', they say. And it's a saying borne out by this second anthology of mishaps and disasters afloat, collected from the 'Confessional' pages of Yachting Monthly magazine. For two decades, hundreds of humbled yachtsmen have clamoured to confess their most embarrassing moments afloat for the amusement and enlightenment of their fellow sailors. 'The Confessional' is one of the first pages that readers turn to each month. Every sailor who ever went to sea has a skeleton hiding in his cupboard, an incident he would rather forget but which preys on his conscience. Over the years, 'The Confessional' has witnessed it all: shipwrecks, mutiny, collisions, strandings...hair-raising, hilarious misadventures, stranger than any fiction. We have laughed with them, learned from them, sympathised and chuckled in a 'holier than thou' fashion, but the one thing these pieces have in common is their insight into why and how their perpetrators 'got it wrong'. Enhanced by Mike Peyton's marvellously poignant cartoons, this book is a must for any boater afloat or ashore. Read on, from the comfort of a safe berth...
