This breezy escapist tale chronicles the misadventures of a motley
crew of college professors who abandon their landlocked lives (and
wives) for one week every year and go sailing. Author Tom Watkins
vividly recounts a decade's worth of these annual escapes, as the
adventurous academics fish, dive, drink, and dream together, all
the while coming to a better understanding of themselves and each
other. Their travels take them to such exotic locales as the Virgin
Islands, Guadeloupe, and the Grenadines, and along the way they
encounter a colorful array of salty characters, including famed
sailor and author John Caldwell and Undine, the jolly German
manager of a tropical restaurant hidden by lush vegetation.
Overflowing with rum, cigars, and poker chips, this is a hilarious
and insightful glimpse into the secret lives of men.
