Product Information
The luxury 19-metre schooner, Patanela , and her crew of four, disappeared in November 1988 within sight of the lights of Botany Bay, Sydney, leaving no debris or bodies as evidence of her sinking. She was one of the sturdiest yachts afloat and was well-known for her Antarctic voyages and circumnavigations of the globe. Constructed of steel, with four watertight bulkheads, she carried the latest safety and navigational equipment, and had sailed the roughest seas in the world for three decades. The dramatic conclusions in this book are the result of a three-year investigation into Patanela 's mysterious disappearance.Product Identifiers
