Reads like a Jimmy Buffet song sung by Woody Allen

20 years of learning to sail by trial & terror

Asthmatic, bookish and timid, young Glenn Patron spent his childhood dreaming of a life of adventure like the  stories he read in the sanctuary of his New York City bedroom.

​

As an adult, bumbling along on the edge of failure, his life changed when he  married an adventurous saltwater lady. Rebuilding an abandoned 30’ sloop   starts them on a  20 year journey of mishaps and triumphs that challenge his beliefs, goals and identity.

"Step aboard and experience white knuckle passages through  reefs,  stand-up comedy surrounded by nude models and dealing with a sinking sailboat in the North Atlantic"
