In 1971, retired sea captain Dougal Robertson made the outlandish decision to sail his young family around the world - only for their boat to be sunk in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Nearly 40 years on, this remarkable story is told vividly through the account of his son, Douglas. It’s a tale of adventure, shipwreck and redemption, as Douglas reminisces on the last voyage of the Lucette. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
