Tale of the Green Dragon (Paperback)

"Let me tell you a whale of a tale of two old codgers who liked to sail; one was named Jay, the other one Al. Between them they had 150 years of living and over 100 years of sailing." So begins the tale of the "Green Dragon," a true American blue-blooded gaff-rigged schooner on a peregrinate trip from Spruce Head, Maine, to Fells Point Maryland and the Great Chesapeake Bay Schooner Race. But this is no ordinary logbook of a summer cruise. Armchair sailors will enjoy the sights and sounds of sailing and where to find the best bread or pizza or lobster along the way. Seasoned sailors will appreciate the local knowledge of unlit markers and blinding shore lights along with the author's weaving in of historical context, precise use of nautical terms, and practical approach to living with and loving old wooden boats.
