Description détaillée
Guide nautique en langue anglaise.
Rod Heikell was born in New Zealand'and s'iled hesitantly around bits of its coast in a variety of yachts. He tried racing in the Hauraki Gulf but was really not much good'at it. In England he abandoned'academic life and for no good reason other than curiosity bought Roulette, a 1950s plywood JOG yacht nearly 20ft long, and s'iled it d'wn to the Mediterranean. He worked on charter her and d'livered yachts until, in ignorance of the scale of the task, he set off to write a yachtsman's guide to Greece.
This was followed by guides for other countries in the Mediterranean. He has s'iled back and forth between England'and the Mediterranean, including a trip d'wn the Danube and on to Turkey in Rosinante, an 18ft Mirror Offshore. In 1996 he took his forth yacht, Tetra, to SE Asia and back for the research for Indian Ocean Cruising Guide. Apart from s'iling the 'wrong' way and back again the 'right' way across the Indian Ocean, he has d'ne four transatlantics on his own yachts andialso cruised extensively in other parts of the world on other yachts. He is currently back at the end of a circumnavigationand s'iling again in his beloved Mediterranean.
