Faith Spencer-Chapman has always had a deep love of sailing. In June 1984, well into her 60s, she joined the crew of the American tall ship
The Gazella of Philadelphia as general dogsbody for a ceremonial sail from Halifax to Quebec and on up the St
Lawrence Seaway through Lake Ontario to Toronto. She took with her a small tape recorder to help keep alive her memories of a varied collection of people of all ages and nationalities brought together by their love of the sea.
