Tryste and the Sea is the story of some of the adventures and misadventures that brought Ernest and Val Haigh to a bad end aboard Tryste, in the good old days when life for cruising sailors was easier, with less restrictions and regulations and when, pre-GPS, all navigation was still celestial.. It details how they could not resist just one more voyage, as Ernest saidwell twoa years voyage to New Zealand and back in 1977, and their second world circumnavigation in 1981. This completes the story begun by Val in her earlier book, Chasing the Dream, in which they had their young daughters as crew. Now they were on their own. They missed the company, the laughter and the help; but there was still the joy of Trystes tan sails billowing in the wind, of visiting different countries and making new friends, of the unpredictable weather and of the company of dolphins and albatrosses. There were also moments to remember for ever, like swimming off Tryste in the middle of the ocean, luxuriating in the lucent warm blue water, a thousand miles from land.
