Description
In January 2022, renowned solo sailor Andrew Fagan set sail from Auckland, New Zealand, in his tiny 5.18-metre sloop-rigged plywood yacht, Swirly World. He was attempting to set the record for ‘the smallest boat to sail around the world solo via the Great Capes’.
The voyage itself was estimated to take fourteen months non-stop. That meant fourteen months of food, water… and resolve.
He first needed to cross the vast South Pacific Ocean towards Cape Horn, one of the most feared and perilous sea routes in the world.
Written with his trademark humour and a solemn sense of sailing awareness, Swirly World Lost At Sea, is part sailing adventure, part memoir, and is underpinned by a clinical understanding of both the brutality and beauty of the sea.
