À propos de l?auteur

Christened Jasper Morgan Rowland III, Skips first trip outside the womb was to the Chautauqua Lake Yacht Club, where he was re-named Skip - appropriate for the newest member of generations of sailors. Home is now in the mountains of British Columbia along the Columbia River, far from the oceans he came to love so much. After graduating college and a tour in the United States Marine Corps Skip founded what is now a manufacturers rep company of significance (Morgan Sampson USA) One of those “Ahaa” moments occurred when when his firm was awarded the distribution of Krazy Glue. The 69 cent wonder tube changed Skip’s life, allowing retirement at age 46 to wander the world in a well fitted 43 foot yacht. It could have been a lackluster cruise but he managed to get into more trouble and oddball situations than one can imagine happening in a lifetime. No Return Ticket, (Leg One and Leg Two) are true adventure memoirs about real people in unreal situations. Skip is an award winning journalist and a sought after speaker.
