John Vigor had it all: a loving family, a remarkable career as a columnist syndicated throughout South Africa, and a comfortable home in Durban, one of South Africa s most beautiful cities. But an apartheid regime, and a clampdown by government forces on the people s freedom of expression, made John decide to leave the life and country that he loved. Together with his wife and seventeen-year-old son, John prepared to give up their life of security and contentment and voyage to America aboard their thirty-one-foot sloop, Freelance. Small Boat to Freedom details a journey of conscience and courage that took John and his family from Durban, past the aptly named Cape of Storms, around the treacherous Cape of Good Hope, and across the open Atlantic and the equator to a new home in the United States. After making land in Florida, John and his family eventually made their new home in beautiful Washington State, sailing the waters of Puget Sound.
