On a motorcycle trip to The Cabot Trail on Cape Breton, Nova Scotia in the late '90s, I was thrilled to see Farley's boat -- Happy Adventure -- AKA The Boat Who Wouldn't Float. She was sitting on the hard, badly shored up with a broken back, as a tourist attraction outside a restaurant.


Here's a link to a site with a photo of her there:

Andrew; I read that book a couple of years ago at the suggestion of someone on this list..love it!







On side note. I grew up sailing on my dad’s C&C 27 in British Columbia. On one cruise, I read a book by Canadian author Farley Mowat called The Boat Who Wouldn’t Float, about a pair of fellows buying and converting a small fishing schooner in Newfoundland.
