Gilboy's Quest

It can be exciting, setting out to sea, and the voyage is often beautiful. Encountering storms and giant waves on the ocean is terrifying. Sailing from San Francisco to Australia alone in an 18-foot boat was unthinkable in 1882 -- but Bernard Gilboy did it. This true adventure is based on the logs of Gilboy's voyage. It is an inspiring story of a sailor who braved the largest ocean in the world simply because he was a born adventurer who could not stand still. The Sydney "Punch" in the February 17, 1883 edition wrote in response to Gilboy's Quest: "Alone on the raging ocean, alone in my craft I ride, Alone on the foaming billows, in all their crested pride, No man before hath ventured, alone, so far to sail, Nor mind hath ever yet conceived a ship so small, so frail.
