    About this ebook

    A group of people from diverse backgrounds share a common dream: to build their own yachts and sail the Pacific. When one of the group, a professional actress, lands the leading role in a major stage production, the others become involved too, and get hooked into theater life. Now they face a dilemma: how to reconcile the emotional pull of the stage with their desire to sail their own yachts.
    Although fictional, much of the novel is set in an Auckland boatyard and a well-known professional theater.
    This is a tale about not-quite-ordinary people realizing their ambition through friendship, courage and determination.

      The villagers of Yockenthwaite knew him as ‘Jack Dull’, ‘Jack Dolt,’ or sometimes just ‘The Dullard’. His real name was John Dullard, last in a long, illustrious line of Dullards, and a man – so they said – of quite miraculous stupidity. The kind of
