The Creation of Cloah Sark

The Creation of Cloah Sark by Clougher, Johnny. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780589013110.

After losing one boat in the West Indies, Johnny Clougher returned to New Zealand on Christmas Eve, 1968, with no assets, trade skills or even any knowledge of boat-building. Despite this, he created his Cloah Sark, one of the most beautiful yachts afloat in New Zealand waters. The Cloah Sark was ten years in the making--ten years of extreme hardship, heartbreak and sadness. Yet the book is a rollicking good tale, full of humor and outrageous anecdotes: it will appeal to every kind of reader, yachtsmen and layman alike--and especially all those who like to see a nonconformist succeed against all odds.
