Mike Peyton is the nautical world's best known and much loved cartoonist.

A perfect bunkside read for seafarers and landlubbers alike.

Media Reviews
'Well illustrated and very funny. Well worth a place on the bunkside bookshelf or by the fireside on a cold winter's night.' Gaffer's Log (Sept 2007) 'The cartoons reflect a particular bit of the sailing world - a corner occupied by those whose enthusiasms do not involve racing and the latest means to go a bit faster but for whom the phrase 'mucking about in boats' was invented...' H2O Dorset (Autumn 2007) 'this is a collection with a difference...One for the loo (and another for the heads?) Classic Boat (December 2007) 'This is a book to pick up and have a browse through when you have a spare ten minutes. I guarentee it'll put a smile on your face.' Boat Mart (Feb 2008)
