John Passmore is the author of Old Man Sailing: Some Dreams Take a Lifetime–the story of his escape from Lockdown by sailing alone into the Atlantic for 42 days and 3,629 miles. Yachting Monthly called it "A word-of-mouth bestseller".
Many of the five-star reviews claimed it worked so well because there was more to the story than the adventure: There were humorous anecdotes. There was a love story….
What the listeners did not know was that all of this was chronicled in detail as it happened. Throughout the early 80s and into the noughties, Passmore was writing for yachting magazines and national newspapers.
Here, for the first time, is a complete and chronological account: everything from levitating the dog and navigating by smell to meeting his wife Tamsin through the Lonely Hearts column of Time Out and attempting to run away to sea and raise a family on a 27 foot boat.
It is a laugh-out-loud, real-life story of love and exasperation afloat–when it's not making you cry.
It is, as the editor of Yachting World said at the time, "good stuff."
