Sobre IBD

The tale of a British Merchant Navy cadet’s first trip to sea. From the leafy lanes of Surrey to the grim docklands of nineteen seventies London to the jungles of Panama, on to the Land of the Long White Cloud and back again. The sea. The work. The crew. The friends. The enemies and of course, the women. What it was really like for an eighteen year old first trip cadet.
