Fourteen
Fourteen: A Daughters Memoir of Adventure, Sailing, and Survival | Leslie Johansen Nack
3 posts | 1 reading | 1 to read
Leslie is fourteen in 1975 when she and her two teenage sisters batten down the hatches on their forty-five-foot sailboat to navigate from San Diego to French Polynesia—a difficult journey that also puts them at the mercy of the stormy temper of their abusive, larger-than-life Norwegian father and captain.

"Writing out the truth and throwing it overboard made me feel even closer to the ocean and I already felt after being at sea 20 days. She expressed affections in the form of good weather, clean waters, abundant fish, steady winds, and clear skies." p161 #Fourteenbook #sailing #memoir #tahiti
