BOOKS COMMENT – IN THE SERVICE OF AEOLUS
Hi Peter. Your book is one of a class! It reads easily, gives information, it’s entertaining, and the narrative navigates many  unpredictable sharps corners that takes it into the category of a thriller too.
 
I like all and  some parts are at the edge of the impossibility spectrum, like when you describe how got the original Windpilot from an impulse buyer as a trade for your boat, who could replicate that?

 
Your retrospect about  the  boat expo could not be more descriptive , attending as a visitor only a few of them, sufficed  me to stay away from many others and imaging what could be on the expositor side, and you survived two hundred plus!
 
Around here and ,God forbid Newport, Maryland or Florida, those events are becoming an expensive proposal por most of the average sailors, not the tickets by itself ,but the Hotels, transportation and parking.
 
Your snippets about boats , circumstances and people add a lot of spice to the stories with  some sobering aspect about some of them.
 
You had a varied and challenging life, and your legacy is distributed around the world via a magnificent, sculpted aluminum billet , what an amazing triumph!
 
I feel  proud  to own one of your masterpieces and notice my elevated status when other sailors ask me about it.
 
The illustrations , design ,and printing and format of the book are first class . Thank you for your gift, I appreciated it.
 
In them is shown a homemade accessory  that I  installed at the  Pilot power bar to regulate the tension of the line length, replaces the shortening  block provided with the  advantage of not necessitating to remove the line from the eye ropes at both sides below the coamings at the end of the trip.
 
Also I included a few screenshot of the drawings produced prior to installing the Gear in the Cape  paying atención to instructions and  making  sure that all details were understood  before drilling any holes.
 
Happy spring to you and your wife ,  thank you for your help during my orders and  let’s cheer for your new  life  as a writer!
