by Fons Oerlemans (Author), Kee Arens (Author)

Join Fons Oerlemans and Kee Arens on a journey of courage, resilience and high adventure as they push the boundaries of possibility on six heroic transatlantic voyages, aboard their extraordinary self-built vessels. From a humble life raft to daring designs using unconventional materials such as an old steam boiler, a nine-ton truck and even a colossal bottle, Oerlemans fearlessly sails his creations across the Atlantic to forge a legacy of innovation and determination. With his wife, Kee, he navigates treacherous waters, tempestuous storms and harrowing challenges to conquer not only the ocean's depths but also their own doubts and fears. From their first expedition in 1974 to their final voyage, their story celebrates the indomitable spirit of true adventurers.
