Brighton to the Mediterranean

Brighton to the Med is the story of a voyage from Brighton to the Mediterranean in a 35ft sailing yacht undertaken in 1998 by former schoolteachers David and Pat Teall. The authors are two "liveaboards" who describe the difference between a holiday cruise and life on a boat which is also their home. It includes preparations for the voyage, communications, around the coast reports and details of costs. The story is taken from twenty-four 'Passage Reports' that they wrote every two weeks throughout the year and sent home to family and friends, as well as scanned copies of extracts from their meticulously kept ship's log.
