Product Description
This novel is set in the late sixties early seventies. Richard D'Arcy a northern lad in his early twenties is on one hand consumed with the eccentricities of the period; the music the fashion and happy-go-lucky attitudes while on the other, he is driven. He is propelled by ambitions of success and fame. A chance meeting with Jonny Dubois acted as a catalyst. It helped turn his dream into a reality. This is Richard's story. It charts his journey through three life channels: sporting achievement, development of life-long and life changing friendships, and how he acquired success in the world of business - from office junior to managing director. From a sporting perspective this is not the stereotypical goal mouth struggle. This is the ultimate tale of success on the waves... It describes in detail, from regatta to regatta, from race to race in intricate detail how D'Arcy & Dubois launched their challenge from novice 'pond' sailors to claim the coveted national sailing crown.
