About

A journey in a ketch across the Pacific Ocean.

The opportunity to cross the oceans in small sailing craft is not given to many men - Neill Arrow took his chance with Miru. In a long and often arduous voyage across the Pacific he formed opinions of his own as to how such an expedition should be conducted. And when, after limping home to New Zealand the main chance came, he jumped at it. His skippering of the 30 foot ketch Taihoa in one of the most hazardous ocean yacht races in the yachtsman's calendar left little to be desired and victory was well deserved.

Includes monochrome images, with illustrations by Julia Faithful.
