Tattoo is a real life Russian Blue female feline who lives full-time with the author aboard their 44ft sailing vessel moored in Woolooware Bay, NSW, Australia. For over six years, this courageous crew of two have learned to adapt to a totally new way of life, becoming one with their environment, learning to love and respect the sea with all the joys and perils it brings. They are governed by the wind as their lives literally come in and out on it and on the tides. This writing gives a unique insight into a life lived in the sea as seen through the eyes of Tattoo, one very special ship's cat.
