Jagular Goes Everywhere: (mis)Adventures in a $300 Sailboat (illustrated version)

About this ebook
With a steadfastly contrarian sensibility and a lively appreciation of both the profound and the absurd, Tom Pamperin sets out with his cantankerous sidekick Jagular (a fourteen-foot sailboat he built from cheap plywood, a 2x4 mast, and a $20 tarp for a sail) on a series of sail and oar (mis)adventures ranging from the Gulf Coast to the Great Lakes. The result is at once a tongue-in-cheek expression of the realities of small boat sailing, and a playful exploration of the inevitable tension between cynicism and romance, between self-deception and sincerity.
