It begins with two wooden boats: the schooner designed by L. Francis Herreshoff and Bruce Kirbys sharpie ketch. From these two float tales of then and now stories of sail and sea in the Australian south, of design and artistic craftsmanship, builders, teacher-mentors, sprung planks, loss and the rescue of ageing boats. Like an ocean meanders, each tale breaks out from the main current, taking the reader on a sinuous journey from New England in the USA to the inland sea of Port Phillip, across Bass Strait to Tasmania and the Southern Ocean.
