In the calm of the Doldrums Boris and I sunbathed on deck, 1978.
“Naomi James was the first woman to sail single-handedly around the world and at the same time break Sir Francis Chichester’s record for speed. Here is the first-hand narrative of her epic sea voyage-the thrilling story of how one woman challenged the elements, conquered fear and triumphed alone on the sea.”
From “At one with the sea” by Naomi James, 1979. https://www.instagram.com/p/CX9RenNNNwP/?utm_medium=tumblr
