\\nClosing in on 200,000 miles of blue water voyaging, Lin and Larry Pardey are recognized as the sailing world\'s most experienced and knowledgeable cruising couple. In Storm Tactics, they provide a detailed look at the techniques and gear that have kept them safe at sea. "... I wanted to show how the sailor\'s safety valve--heaving-to-works, and the slick it creates. It\'s hard for people to imagine the almost magic effect of a slick as it saps the power of breaking waves...." - Larry Pardey. \\n
\\n"One of the reasons I wanted to sail east-to-west around Cape Horn was to take video shots proving that small vessels can safely weather storms if they are well outfitted and efficiently handled," Larry Pardey stated after his record-breaking voyage. Lin and Larry completed their against-the-wind rounding of the Great Southern Capes on board their engineless 29-foot Taleisin, weathering nine days of storm-force winds to reach Puerto Montt in Chile. There they interviewed several high-latitude voyagers, prepared the narrative, and shot further detailed footage to complete the Storm Tactics video, a project Lin and Larry conceived almost ten years ago.
