The book is a series of humoristic accounts of his real adventures and an introspective look into the weakness of human being who is facing the ocean.
Jean has been interviewed on the Virgin Islands’ radio station WVWI and on TV channel 12. Many stories about his daring actions have been published in newspapers like Caribbean Boating and the Virgin Islands Daily News.
The Frenchie was told to write some his chronicles about his adventurous life, which he has shared with many Virgin Islands sailors. He has lived all of his life in the Virgin Islands.
This enfant terrible of the Virgin Islands is a free spirit who does not fit into a conventional life. He obtained a master’s degree in French literature at Middlebury’s College in Vermont.view less
