"Another good book by Lin and Larry Pardey! Enjoyable story, interesting adventures, and some sound sailing/cruising advice mixed in. Valuable read for anyone even just considering buying a sailboat - never mind cruising the world with it. Their keep it simple and small is good advice to be heeded."
"I read this book during a time when I was around boats and learning to sail on the San Francisco Bay. I got the book as a gift from a friend during a seminar Lin Pardey was giving in Sausalito, so I was fortunate to meet her and have my copy of the book signed. It's hard not to be inspired by this couple as they designed, built, and set to sea...really living their dream. Lot's of practical advice and wonderful storytelling of all the people (and weather!) they meet on their adventures."
"This book was written by the sailing gods, Lin and Larry Pardey. This married couple have been sailing around the world for decades on two small sailboats and neither one of the boats had an engine! They don't just talk the talk, they definitely walk the walk with their simple and economical cruising lifestyle. I loved this first book and can't wait to read the next one!"
