このコンテンツについて
Scaling three-story rope ladders up the sides of ships, memorizing every rock and current in a harbor, and narrowly avoiding catastrophic collisions with Grant Livingstone, a retired harbor pilot. What do you do when your engine and anchors fail in heavy fog? And how do you dock a ship the size of the Empire State Building?
Grant and his twin brother Captain George Livingstone co-authored the recent book Shiphandling, The Beautiful Game.
