About this ebook

This adventure/autobiography begins with the dream of a fourteen-year-old boy to build a fishing schooner and sail around the world. It starts with the collection of all possible money, then the purchase of a secondhand hard pine from the old textile mills.

Eleven years along in the construction with the total support of his family, he quit his full-time job, took out a promissory note from the bank. Earle used a great deal of improvisations to keep the costs down. Regardless of that, the money was spent in one year.

His chapters go on to mention the interesting characters, the ups and downs, the ever-present all-around strain on the family, which propelled the vessel onto its completion in fourteen years!

You the reader will be captivated with the details of building the schooner, the humorous situations, and all the other underlying themes involved!
