About K. Adlard Coles
Peter Bruce has twice been Britain's winning skipper in the Admiral's Cup series, and was one of the lead surviving boats in the gale-plagued 1979 Fastnet Race, in which 24 boats were abandoned and 15 sailors died. During many years of seagoing in the Royal Navy, he encountered survival winter gales off Nova Scotia and Cape Town, and typhoons off Japan and Baja California. An avid cruising sailor as well as a racing skipper, he has handled sailboats in all weather, and his greatest racing successes have come in stormy races. He is the author of several British pilot guides and was the author/editor of the fourth and fifth editions of Heavy Weather Sailing. Hometown: England
