- Summary
- British journalist Gornall beautifully documents the year he spent building a wooden boat for his young daughter. After being an absentee dad to his grown son, the 58-year-old hoped one day to teach his two-year-old to navigate, believing that "the sea is the sworn ally of imagination." Owning almost no tools and having no woodworking skills, Gornall, living on England's eastern coast, gave himself a crash course in boatbuilding from books and experts and bought what seemed at first an "utterly indecipherable" schematic plan with the hopes that he could finish the project in a year
