SECOND WIND: A SUNFISH SAILOR'S ODYSSEY
By Nathaniel Philbrick
1999 Cloth

At 22, Nat Philbrick won the Sunfish North American Championship. Fifteen years later he decided to give it another try, embarking on a personal voyage of discovery that took him from the many ponds of his native Nantucket to the championship in the American heartland. A warm, funny, often moving story of a sailor, his family, and an island . . . and the voyage that brought them together. (203 pp / 17 photos)
