Book Description:
When ELSIE HULSIZER was little, she lived on the shores of Puget Sound in Washington where she sailed in a small open sailboat with her parents. Her parents would always start out by sailing to windward, or against the wind, so they would have an easy ride home with the wind pushing them from behind. Later, she and her husband, Steve, spent summers sailing Puget Sound and the Strait of Juan de Fuca, always to windward. They traveled this difficult course to Vancouver Island where they encountered spectacular scenery and quiet anchorages. For the next twenty-odd years, they explored the four sounds, several inlets, and countless islands, bays, coves, and unprotected coast between Juan de Fuca Strait and Brooks Peninsula. They survived wild weather and foaming reefs, met interesting people, and discovered the history of a coast undergoing phenomenal changes. With Elsie's own beautiful photographs, VOYAGES TO WINDWARD is Elsie's account of their discovery-an absorbing story that will delight all sailors whether or not they plan to follow Elsie's windward course.
