Dean and Drew

 

Dean Meeks & Drew Paige

In 1985 Dean Drew Meeks set off on an odyssey of a lifetime. Raised on a dairy farm in central Texas, sailing was not considered to be a normal pastime. In fact no one had a boat for miles. Dean was not an experienced sailor but was an avid reader, which gave him confidence to attempt a crossing from England to Texas. Columbus did it so why couldn’t he?

The book “Odyssey of a Texas Sailor,” is based on Dean’s journals of this crossing with a little bit of memories from me, Drew Paige, his daughter. I hope you enjoy the humor, adventure and thoughts contained in this book.
