Sprowl, Susan - Two Stormy Sailing Adventures in Maine: "Sailing in Hurricane Agnes" & "Are You Good?", February 12, 2014
Paper description
Author describes two of her stormy sailing adventures in Maine. She shares two survival stories that occurred on the same small, wooden Herreshoff sailboat with the same skipper thirty-eight years apart. Each wild sailing adventure was unintentional. Susan did not set out to challenge either a hurricane or a microburst. She explains how she, her sailboat, and her passengers responded to the storms that surprised them.
