An amazing story. Photos. \u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn June 1984 Serge Testa sailed from Brisbane, Australia, in Acrohc Australis, a boat he designed and built himself that measured just under 12 feet. He returned to Brisbane in May 1987 after about 27,000 nautical miles, following the trade winds westward with stops including Darwin, Cape Town and Tahiti. He spent 500 days at sea along the way, which gave the book its title.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eGuinness World Records lists the voyage as the smallest wind-powered boat to circumnavigate the globe. The boat could be sailed entirely from inside so Testa could close the hatch in foul weather, and it is now at the Queensland Maritime Museum. Trident Press published his account in 1988.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"pc-book-specs\"\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eBook Details\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Serge Testa\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 216 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 5.75 x 8.25 in.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780731648498\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Paradise Cay Publications","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67857183572213,"sku":"STP002","price":17.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0829\/2198\/0149\/files\/STP002_104lb.jpg?v=1793863334","url":"https:\/\/paracay.com\/products\/500-days","provider":"Paradise Cay Publications, Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
