Review on Lulu.

I would recommend this book to people interested in circumnavigating under power, and also those who wonder “what it would be like” to kick off from dry land without decades of ocean-going experience to draw upon.

Our Facebook book page.

The book is illuminating and so descriptive you feel like you can taste the food, smell the ocean and meet the people.

Article in April 16th Edition of “The Log”.

Starting from the beginning, the author describes how a dream to travel around the world by plane progressed to cruising around the world by boat…

It was a 10 month process to create the book. The book is different from the blog. It is written in first person from Christi’s perspective. It has new information, including things we did not want to mention on the blog. Learn about the challenges, rewards, and the surprises that come with both traveling and boating. It is a fun an easy read that both boaters and non-boaters will enjoy.

We want to thank everyone for their support in creating the book.
