Original Toronto Star caption: Joan Skogan; B.C. author and poet; lives on Russian and Polish trawlers for weeks at a time as a fisheries observer. I've had plenty of trouble; plenty of hard times; she says; but it all balances out with contentment and joy at being at sea. She has written a book about her experiences: Voyages; at Sea with Strangers.
