Around the World in 80 Years
The Oldest Singlehander in the World! At the advanced ages of 78 and 89, Harry L. Heckel, Jr., fulfilled a dream: he sailed alone around the world, not once, but twice! This Old Man of the Sea goes global, describing with a dry wit and a keen eye, the 54 countries and islands he visited, plus the sail to get there. Armchair travelers and sailors alike will be enthralled by the adventures of this Ancient Mariner: from the Killing Fields of Cambodia to the Great Wall of China, from avoiding pirates off Somalia to almost capsizing off Madagascar. An inspiring tale that proves that age is no deterrent to fulfilling your dream! Praise for Harry Heckel: He was very much admired and respected as the oldest, most experienced and wisest of yachties....he is our treasure. Rose Selfridge, s/v Fair Rose We enjoyed Harry's wit, his incredible knowledge of so many subjects, and particularly his vitality. Betty Root, s/v Wrangler He's one in a million. Kirk McGeorge, s/v Polly Brooks He has seen, heard, and done so much, and has touched many people's hearts... Cindy Stew He is truly a beacon for so many of us on how NOT to get old and boring.
