Yes Jamestown is still a fine place to be a kid. I hope you enjoy the book and the sequel "Cape Cod Surprise," about where I grew up. I actually won the 2000 Snipe Nationals on the lake in Oklahoma City. I hope my books will help pass on the joy of sailing to the next generation. cheers Carol Teresa:

I too am originally from Jamestown where I grew up sailing & racing a 9'one-design yacht on Narragansett Bay & fooled w. boats off the east ferry beach thruout my life there, until leaving by age 23. I have read part of your Olivers Surprise story and, even from the first pgs.,it takes me back there, when either sailing or rowing our boats or dory. It was always all about boats then , as we still took a ferry to Newport, before the bridge was completed. I'm still enjoying sailing, racing, and some kayaking where I reside in OK..on the lakes. I intend to purchase your books and read them to the younger generation, as your stories depict the true joy of sailing that only a childhood in Jamestown can tell! HI Carol,

I am a bit of a Herreshoff nut, and would like to have some more Marlin photos for my collection of beautiful Herreshoff boats. Hi Carol, do you have any nice photos of your Marlin you can share?

I don't remember reading WITW as a child so much as "re" discovering it as an adult. And the quote is, of course, the best expression I've ever found of the basic joy I find in being on the water.

Very much enjoyed browsing your site, especially as it has my favorite literary quote on the header. My father used to read to us in the evenings in front of the fire (right coast winter ritual) when we were that perfect age...the only two books that I remember are The Wind in the Willows and a giant, old book titled "The Boys of 1812" which was a very detailed history of our early naval adventures. I'll be back! Helloooo! Very much enjoyed browsing your site, especially as it has my favorite literary quote on the header.
