Forty five feet of ketch, and the Atlantic. Nutting sailed the Typhoon from New York to England and back in 1920 in a boat most people thought far too small for it, and wrote it up with exactly the enthusiasm that went on to found the Cruising Club of America: the gales, the fog, the watches, the crew, the landfall, and the case that small boats can go anywhere if the men aboard are good enough.
