Mingming Ocean Sailing

May 6th, 2010 by admin Leave a reply »

Roger Taylor is back with another book!

In 2008 I wrote a short review on his first book, Voyages of a Simple sailor, and what a review it was. Roger has the most addictive writing style, and I found myself glued to it’s pages until I was finally left disappointed that I’d ran out of new ones.

The new book, Mingming & the Art of Minimal Ocean Sailing: More Voyages of a Simple Sailor, will hopefully deliver more of that great writing, and knowing what he’s been doing in Mingming over the last few years, I have no doubt he’s got one hell of a story to tell.

Just on the slim chance that you don’t already know about Mingming, she’s a junk rigged Corribee, fitted out specifically for single handed ocean going. Roger has covered many thousands of miles in that little boat, which is essentially Kudu with a different rig. I honestly can’t wait to read this!

The book is currently on pre-order at Amazon, but I will post a full review when I get my copy.

    I read “Voyages of a simple sailor” after I read your review and it was great reading indeed! Definately looking forward to reading this book, mostly for any practical advice it provides.
