Sinopse
A virgin sailor's bawdy tale of a once in a lifetime adventure.
Mick is the novice deckhand on a yacht, skippered by an Irishman who's off with his mistress to find a new life. Set in the 1970s, this witty, well-paced rite of passage is full of freshness, sexual impulse, and a clash of values. Long Lost Log is a voyage of discovery into what it means to be free.
During "lockdown", Michel Chapman Pincher received a surprise package—a logbook of a sailing trip he'd made across the Atlantic 47 years ago—one he thought long-lost. Returned by a young love who found it in a keepsake box in her attic, Michael was inspired to tell a tale never told before. Michael wrote up the clash of a free-loving, dope-smoking hippy with the class prejudice, racial stereotyping, and failed tweedy attitudes of his "elders and betters" in the confines of a 37' cruising yacht, heading for the Caribbean. It was worth the effort as Lilliput Press, Dublin took the book on.
Long Lost Log: Diary of a Virgin Sailor is witty, charming, and proof that some risks are worth taking. This once-in-a-lifetime adventure is easy to listen to—the story flows from one event to another. Long Lost Log is a true story, written like a novel—a rollicking audiobook written with verve, keen observations, and sparkling with wry humour.
A beautifully crafted audiobook, multi-layered and bravely written, Long Lost Log has many interesting insights into the skills and craft of sailing and the broader history of the day. Chapman Pincher describes the people he meets and the voyage he makes with incredible clarity and of the moment. Set in the 1970s, Long Lost Log is a period piece for the nostalgic traveler and the armchair adventurer of any age.
