Maverick Marketer is the story of National Sailing Hall of Fame marketing guru, Bob Johnstone, who built the leading performance brands of J/Boats in sailboats and MJM Yachts in powerboats.

Aged just seven, Suzanne Heywood set sail with her parents and brother on a three-year voyage around the world. What followed turned instead into a decade-long way of life, through storms, shipwrecks, reefs and isolation, with little formal schooling. No one else knew where they were most of the time and no state showed any interest in what was happening to the children. Suzanne fought her parents, longing to return to England and to education and stability. This memoir covers her astonishing upbringing.

The Seafaring Life is Bob’s third book of insights into what the cruising lifestyle is all about. What makes people get aboard a boat–about the same size as a jail cell–and sail out onto the most inhospitable place on Earth, the ocean? Where there are things that want to eat you, and you are surrounded by water you can’t drink!

A tale about an ocean sailing trip, the goings on at land at sea by a sailor and adventurer.
