Jeff Merrill did the most extensive review to date of The Unexpected Circumnavigation. Full disclosure: Jeff is our friend and our Nordhavn salesperson. But above all, Jeff has incredible integrity, and we believe his review is objective and complete. All of the feedback we have gotten on the book so far has been positive. We are still the number 1 selling travel book on Lulu!
We did it, we published the book! The Unexpected Circumnavigation: Unusual Boat, Unusual People — Part 1 San Diego to Australia is done and available to purchase. The book is available through the publisher, Lulu. You can get a printed paperback book shipped to you, a digital copy, or both. The Lulu site has the full description, preview pages (the preview is low resolution, but we assure you it comes out sharp when printed or downloaded), and a shopping cart to buy the book.
You can buy the book now from Lulu!. If you enter the code IDES in the coupon section at the checkout screen, you will get 10% off the purchase price (through March 31, 2010).
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.
