商品簡介 |
| Peter Haase has always been fascinated with the ocean and with sailing. At the age of 57, he was at last able to fulfill his childhood dream. Early retirement from a major trading company in New York allowed him to embark on a life on the sea. He had an opportunity to sail around the world in a 42-ft. ketch. However her owner gave up after a month of island hopping in the Caribbean. Peter was unwilling to return to New York."I am changing my lifestyle," he had announced to his co-workers when he retired. And that lifestyle was sailing From April, 1985, to May, 1986, Haase sailed on several boats, grew his sealegs, and lerned to sail, work and live on ocean yachts. In Call of the Sea, he shares his experinces - the boats, the weather, the islands and the people he encountered. After 14 months on boats in various conditions, in good and bad weather, with an assortment of people and two shipwrecks, Haase realized he must have his own boat in order to pursue a life on the sea. He found and bought the perfect boat on which he lived and sailed for 11 years. His second book, Eleven Years Afloat, is an account of his adventures, based on the logbooks of his sailboat, TRITON 3. Haase lives in Stuart on the east coast of Florida, where he remains near the water that he loves. |
