The Voyage of the Sanderling: An Atlantic Odyssey

Stone set off in the summer of 1986 from Camden, Maine, in a 38-foot cutter called Sanderling , heading south. In April 1988, he and his crew completed the 8,000-mile cruise that took them all the way to Rio. Their goal was to assess, from a firsthand perspective, the environmental crisis afflicting the entire Atlantic coast of North and South America. This is his account of that odyssey.
