This novel looks at why men can suddenly lose it in their middle years and run amok. Why they start acting like wild teenage boys again. And why some men do things none of their family would ever believe them capable of. This is a rough, gutsy hilarious, but sometimes sad and contemplative novel attempting to discover what really lies behind a mid life crisis. It's a story of a number of broken men trying to rebuild their dreams around sailing yachts, booze, drugs and young women. It's an inside look at the cruising lifestyle. It is a fierce novel about blokes - how they love, fail to love, or can't love, when loving would have been their salvation... If you are a man who loves yachts; the ocean, running wild and free this is a novel for you.
