About the book
When retirement beckons, John Passmore chooses not the garden shed but the open ocean, embarking on a series of solo voyages that test his seamanship, courage, and resolve. Through storms, equipment failures, and moments of profound solitude, Passmore reflects on ageing, independence, and the enduring human need for challenge. His honest, often humorous account proves that adventure recognises no age limit. A compelling read for anyone drawn to the sea or contemplating their own next chapter, this is both a gripping sailing narrative and a thoughtful meditation on growing older without growing tame.
