"The cheapest way to see the world is on a sail boat as the wind is free"An overheard naive remark which was the start of an adventure for six restless, young people.This is the story of how they formed a commune, built a 46 ft. steel boat in Johannesburg, South Africa, then sailed it across four oceans.It also ells off their experiences on three continents from 1959 to 1965. South Africa was still a segregated country and Mozambique was just on the verge of their civil war. It covers the tranquility of the Caribbean Islands and sailing through the inland waterways of North America before the onslaught of tourism. All of this was accomplished without money or sponsors, Just hard work and a desire for adventure. This story shows how, with the bare necessities of life one can follow ones dreams .
