When a boat meant to sail.... has a submarine's instincts and her own ideas about when to start and which direction she'll go in; her crew has to be ready for anything! The crew of Happy Adventure , with Farley Mowat as skipper, rises to a wet run of hilarious and harrowing challenges; with everything dampened except their spirits.The leaky, cantankerous, wayward heroine of this Atlantic saga limps along the Maritime coasts, up to the St. Lawrence River. But she has sailed triumphantly into the hearts of thousands of readers in Canada, England, Sweden, Holland, Poland, France, United States, and Russia. In this new edition, she is honoured with 90 black-and-white drawings of highlights from her voyages. Gales of laughter are forecast and it's every man for himself in this riot of ribald misadventures!
