About the book: 1981 / At the beginning of 1976, maritime newspapers and magazines in many countries published sensational reports about the voyage across the ocean of "Slocam from Poland" - a young , but already a well-known journalist and yachtsman Jacek Edward Palkiewicz. A voyage made on an old 5-meter boat without a radio, without a sextant, without a thruster, under far from perfect sails.
