“Rambling under sail” is the story of Steve Pickards first 25 years as a cruising man. From his first boat, a canoe, to the boat he and his wife escaped on in 2000, tale after tale is both harrowing and funny as disaster is so narrowly averted in the search for a better sailing boat and more profound experiences afloat.
Since 2000 Steve has sailed in waters from the Arctic to South America and has crossed the Atlantic several times, including solo. For these and other voyages he has won awards from the Royal Cruising Club, the Ocean Cruising Club and the Cruising Association. He now writes pilots for the RCC Pilotage foundation and is the author of “South Biscay” published by Imray Norie and Wilson.
He is also author of “The Lone Gull Files” published by Bosun Books.
