Open-Boat Cruising Frank & Margaret Dye
Read in 1983, this book inspired an adventure with my day sailer. Along with my 18 year old son we drove to Corpus Cristi, Texas from Colorado to sail and camp going south on the intercostal waterways for a week. It was the first part of December in Colorado.

One day we put the spinnaker up at 9am and didn't take it down till 4:30 pm. What a day!

Looks like that one is only available second hand, and not cheaply. Must be good at that price

I found it for 15.95 on erbbs books
