Ronald White, a marine biologist, teacher, and man of the sea, has completed his new book "Fortunella": a potent story that follows a boat of a similar name, born as a sailing yacht, started with a very humble life, commissioned under a wealthy merchant before being stolen again and trading many hands before ending up anchored and abandoned in the Turks and Caicos Islands.
Published by Newman Springs Publishing, Ronald White's intriguing tale delves into that storied history that Captain Ron starts to uncover one year after another, understanding all the locations that this boat has seen and all the roles she has fulfilled from tax dodge, to pleasure boat, to illicit cargo hauler, and now down a simple educational platform for high school and college students.
Readers who wish to experience this engaging work can purchase "Fortunella" at bookstores everywhere, or online at the Apple iBooks Store, Amazon, or Barnes and Noble.
