About this title

Synopsis:

The adventure begins when Jim Moore announces to his bride of two months that they will build a boat and sail to the South Pacific. Circumnavigating the world in a 36-foot sloop isn't generally regarded as an adventure to be taken lightly. However, lightly is just how Jim and Molly Moore took it and the story of their journey provides refreshing and amusing inspiration to all cruising sailors, actual or potential.

Review:

This fine adventure will delight bluewater sailors.--Publishers Weekly

An amusing, educational and inspiring cruising narrative.--Cruising World

Far from simply amusing, this first-person narration by Jim Moore, tells about a couple with no sailing experience but a commitment to a long-term dream and an addiction to the sea....The book is filled with practical knowledge and ingenious do-it-yourself tips for all amateur sailors.--Yachting World
