Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:

A young boy remembers his grandfather's boat only through stories he's heard growing up. As his grandfather's health deteriorates, so does the condition of the boat, and only after his passing does the young boy's father decide to breathe new life on to the boat and sail onto the horizon as if his grandfather had never passed. This affectionate story of family and remembrance will surely captivate any reader.

Since Grandpa's illness and death, his family have left his boat, The Periwinkle, untouched and unused. But one day they decide to repair the boat in memory of Grandpa, and find that it is better to remember than to forget.
