Flotilla

Flotilla is a book to relax with, a sparkling summer beach read, a riotous winter's piece of escapism. You don't need no be a sailing buff - even some of the crews confuse the pointy end with the blunt bid at the back - to find your shrouds shaking at the misadventures of the motley crews in their hired yachts taking a fortnight's holiday at the Ionian Sea. Take a holiday yourself with Flotilla, a gripping saga of the sea with a sagging grip on the basics of sailing.
