Amazing story

It takes alot to write about the experience in life. Living out your dream has continued to give me the courage to want to fulfill mine. I even bought the paperback just for the reference of the way some things were talked about. Thanks for the great story.

Another great adventure

I recently started listening to audio books and love it. I am not much for reading so this is my next best replacement.

I really enjoyed the story, start to finish. The author laid out the foundation for the story, set us Sailing with her and kept me coming back with her humor, details. descriptive nature.

All and all and good book. I will listen to it again because am sure I missed a lot of details when I was mapping their trip.

Very nice job.

Sailing with impunity

I really enjoy reading about sailing adventures. It was a little slow. But I did enjoy it

How a South Pacific loop from Seattle can be made uninteresting

There are so many fascinating, informative, humble accounts of long voyages in the Pacific by young or older crews. This book is not one of them. A poorly written juxtaposition of mundane anecdotes brings the reader through this voyage, with a writer not even trying to do some research to use the right terms. When not mundane, anecdotes are good stories about what to not do. Like killing a tuna with a 357 magnum or collecting sea shells with the animal still inside and complaining about the smell. The book could have been about sharing emotions, bringing the reader along. But no. There are more emotions in a shopping list. I did like the narration though, same narrator as for Lin Pardey’s books, that I highly recommend instead of this one.

Terrible book

Thanks for telling us you bought salt and other spices. Riveting book if you read at a 1st grade level. Didn’t listen beyond chapter 3.
