Fifty years and dozens of boats latersailboats, powerboats, inboards and outboardsthe pull is as strong as ever.In the tradition established by Mark Twain, Joseph Conrad, and Herman Melville, distinguished author and scholar Louis Rubin explores mans longtime passion for boats. He examines the compulsion that has prompted him and hundreds of thousands of other nonnautical persons to spend so much time, and no small portion of their incomes, on watercraft that they can use only infrequently.As his new boat (a cabin cruiser made of wood on a workboat hull) is being built, Rubin tells of his past boats and numerous boating disasters and draws a poignant comparison between his two passions: watercraft and the craft of writing.Anyone who has ever bought and owned a boator wondered why people are obsessed by themwill love this amusing, evocative, beautifully crafted memoir by an inveterate boatowner.
