Worse Things Happen at Sea is the long awaited follow up to Jake Kavanagh's hugely popular Ups and Downs of a Lockkeeper. This time turning his humorous eye to the scrapes people get into when let loose on open water, Jake has us chuckling, blushing and recognising ourselves or fellow crew coming unstuck in the maritime mayhem he highlights with his witty pen and captures so admirably with his hilarious illustrations. A great read for the armchair sailor - but you may decide that the armchair is the safest place to stay!

Review:

'This collection of collisions and other mishaps from Practical
Boat Owner's Jake Kavanagh is a cut above the norm. The diversity of Jake's
own career on the water is reflected in this funny, sometimes embarrassing
collection of man's folly afloat... A rather superior loo-book!' -- Classic Boat, January 2007
