Biographie de l'auteur

Will Peters has spent much of his life at sea, during which time he sailed extensively in the Great Lakes, the North Atlantic and the Caribbean Islands. In his experience as Captain of his own fifty-six foot charter sailing ketch and twenty-five years as a professional Captain of power and sailing yachts, he had some close calls at sea and met many interesting characters. While Master of a one hundred sixty-five foot schooner, used as a school ship, the vessel was declared overdue and possibly lost with all hands on board in a blizzard in the North Atlantic. Although his novel is entirely fiction, some of this material is loosely based on people and situations he encountered.
