If you are like me, you read Robert Louis Stevenson’s Treasure Island several times as a child, and have wondered what happened to Long John Silver, Benn Gunn, and The Treasure of Dead Man’s Chest. You now hold in your hands the third novel in the Of Chains and Slavery trilogy, which answers those nagging questions. True to his nature, Long John Silver was able to lead, coerce, and manipulate many of the men who fought the American Revolution to unknowingly do his bidding, even General George Washington and John Paul Jones—all during a twenty-month period in which that famous young naval hero disappeared from the history books.

Under the Trade Wind Sky is a compilation of tales about growing up and coming of age in one of the most unique ways imaginable, as a sailor on some of the most celebrated sailing yachts of all time. Robert Louis (Lou) Boudreau first went to sea when he was six months old aboard the famous 98-foot schooner Yankee. His father owned and sailed the schooner in the beautiful Bras d’Or Lakes of Cape Breton, Nova Scotia, Canada. When Lou was a year old the Boudreaus left Canada and voyaged south to warmer climes. Sailing out of Miami, Florida, they eventually ran their charter cruises in the West Indies. Lou spent his early childhood on the island of St. Lucia, sailing the Caribbean aboard such vessels as the 100-foot schooner Doubloon and the 98-foot Howard Chappelle-designed Baltimore clipper Caribee, both owned by his father. In fact, in November of 2022, Lou’s father, Capt. Walter Boudreau, was inducted posthumously into the Charter Yacht Brokers Association Hall of Fame for his lifetime achievements in the charter industry.

You don’t need an ocean, a fortune, or a gleaming white yacht to have a lifetime of sailing stories.
These pages are filled with wind-driven adventures on small boats, humble lakes, and working-class sailcraft—stories shaped less by exotic destinations than by the people, mishaps, laughter, and quiet magic that come with time on the water. From trailerable sailboats and one-design racecourses to wind-swept reservoirs in the American West, this book celebrates sailing as it’s actually lived by most sailors: practical, affordable, occasionally chaotic, and endlessly rewarding.

The strength of Hero comes from the band-of-brothers mentality and sense of fellowship that evolved, many associated with the vessel were and continue to be committed to its history. Throughout its life, Hero faced dangers such as Cape Horn weather, ice, storms, submerged rocks, Drake crossings, groundings, Argentine and Chilean militarism, Cold War espionage, volcanic eruptions, and gale-force winds. But it also enjoyed stunning scenery at many out-of-the-way places throughout Tierra del Fuego and the Antarctic Peninsula. It also offered a front-row seat to stunning icebergs, glaciers, and majestic wildlife such as penguins, whales, and seals. Its scientific achievements are many. Hero did this all on its own terms and just like a true hero, became a touchstone for the many lucky enough to have been involved with or part of its life, as well as for the majority of us encountering Hero only through its remnants, photos, and stories. Welcome aboard the Hero way.
