MEDITERRANEAN ADVENTURE

written by

WAYNE CLARK (AKA CAPTAIN TUBS)

Although Captain Tubs grew up in Durban close to a large yacht harbour, he never set foot on a yacht until he was forty years old. His decision to start sailing was made in, of all places, Tignes, the French Ski Resort.

Captain Tubs tells the story of how this sailing adventure came about, the agony of learning to sail, finding his delightful yacht Emma Mae and, as a rookie sailor with the help of some close friends, sailed away from England’s fair shores in July 1993.

The story, Mediterranean Adventure, tells of Emma Mae’s journey around the Channel Islands, through Brittany into the Bay of Biscay, along the rivers and canals of France and down to the Mediterranean. From mainland Spain across to Mallorca, where Emma Mae lived for three years, then finally to the Greek island of Corfu. The entire journey having been planned and guided by the Greek Gods.

Wayne (Captain Tubs) will give IMCZ members a short illustrated PowerPoint presentation of some highlights of this adventure, which include a few near-death experiences. Captain Tubs will invite members to join in the discussion, ask questions and offer their own sailing experiences for us all to enjoy.

A bound PDF copy of MEDITERRANEAN ADVENTURE will be presented to one lucky (or unlucky) member, whose name will be pulled out of a hat at the end of the evening’s presentation.
