Tony tells me that he has Tristan's logbooks from the two vessels involved in The Incredible Voyage - the logs of the yawl Barbara, and the little cutter Sea Dart.  For many years both were thought to have been lost.  Laurel Wagers, who wrote Sailing Among The Stars, the story of Sea Dart, was unable to locate that logbook.  Anthony has collected them both, on loan for research purposes only, from a safe haven in the United Kingdom. They both tell magnificent stories, if not exactly what Tristan wrote in The Incredible Voyage!  This is a MUST READ for all Tristan Jones fans!
