Reviews / Votes
"No summer is complete without reading a Peyton cartoon book... bound to bring a chuckle to even the most stern of faces!!" Multihull Review, July 2009 'The cartoons provided immediate giggles...as the enjoyment builds up you may find yourself able to bridge the gap between the positives and negatives of sailing just that little bit quicker...' Cruising (September 2009) '...Peyton captures every red-faced moment for the smug entertainment of all armchair or active sailors...a wonderful collection...' The Nautical Magazine (July 2009) 'Sure to bring a smile to the face of any boater with a functioning sense of humour. This is a book that you can leave lying around and then come back to another time with just as much enthusiasm.' Boat Mart (February 2010)More details

Person
Mike Peyton is Britain's best loved nautical cartoonist - and a sailor himself. For years he has made his mark, contributing witty and poignantly funny cartoons to the yachting and boating press all over the world, poking fun at seafarers of all types and capturing in his distinctive cartoon style their often eccentric and idiosyncratic ways. Adlard Coles Nautical has published two other books by Mike Peyton: Ever Wonder Why We Do It? and Floating Assets.
