Between Two Harbors: Reflections of a Catalina Island Harbormaster
doug oudin, author
Doug Oudin served as harbormaster on Catalina Island for thirty-two years. In his memoir, he chronicles his involvement in the death of actress Natalie Wood, his often harrowing and challenging ocean rescues, storm responses, and numerous encounters in the wilds of Catalina Island; both at sea and on land.
His story vividly details some rather incredible adventures at sea, as well what it is actually like to live on an offshore island, raise two sons in a unique environment, and interact with the boating community, government agencies, celebrities, as harbormaster.
This is a fascinating read that captures the essence of his dedication and love of the sea.

I thoroughly enjoyed reading Between Two Harbors by Doug Oudin

I thoroughly enjoyed reading Between Two Harbors by Doug Oudin. It is the best book I have read since The Boy In The Boat. Doug's writing is equally as fine and is very descriptive and easy and fun to read. You will get so immersed that you won't be able to put it down. I can't wait to read his next book "Five Weeks to Jamaica"
