Quote by Roger D. Taylor

““The basic requirements for crossing an ocean under sail are no more than they always have been – a strong hull; a simple, easily managed rig; a good steering system with back-up; the ability to repair or rebuild anything on board while still at sea. It really isn’t that complicated.””
