    Mike writes:

    “Our Sept ’03 interview with Capt. Skip Strong has got to be one of the best sea stories you’ll ever  hear.  ’In Peril’ is his first hand account of a mayday situation off Florida which resulted in the largest marine salvage in history.  An absolutely compelling account of a marine adventure that becomes a legal thriller and even has a sci-fi side– highly recommended.  Skip Strong will be at the Belfast Harbor Fest, Aug 20-22, 2010″
