Summary of Brendan O’Shannassy's Superyacht Captain

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Book Preview:

#1 I was a child who was allowed to do as I pleased, and I enjoyed it. I was raised in a middle-class family in Australia, and I was always at the yacht club looking for someone to sail with. I met Michael, another young beachside vagrant, and became inseparable friends.

#2 I was playing Australian Rules Football for the local club, the Rockingham Rams, when I met Michael. We became friends, and I felt a sense of belonging with his gang of tough kids. I could move between worlds and be the unseen connector between them.

#3 The time stamp of your home town always stays with you, even long after it stops being a feature in your life. In 2014, I was in Monaco to meet colleagues and three children of Rockingham were also staying in the Fairmont Hotel.

#4 I meekly joined my colleagues in the Monaco Yacht Club the morning after the night in the Fairmont. We had met to conduct a pre-meeting rehearsal before we took the helicopter to Nice airport for the Aeroflot flight to Moscow. We were presenting to a client the technical details supporting a €300 million yacht that was soon to begin construction.
