Sinopse
From the author of Journey to the Ragged Islands, The Gold Box, Chasing the Nomadic Dream, and Sailing to Newfoundland....
A story of overcoming adversity and chasing a dream....
A blueprint for making the change from landlubber to ocean sailor....
The story is told beginning with the vision and desire to sail on the ocean, through the training and education, buying a boat, gaining experience, and finally embarking on a 1000nm journey to bring the boat home, singlehanded.
An immersive nonfiction adventure story, Becoming a Sailor captures the scene as one would experience it. Becoming a Sailor also goes into technical detail about the repairs and additions to Sobrius, a 1972 Dufour Arpege, as well as the techniques the author had to learn in order to sail singlehanded on multiday passages. The narrative moves back and forth in time, from the author's adventures leading up to the purchase of Sobrius to the final journey, singlehanded, from Tampa Bay to The Dry Tortugas, then Miami, and finally to St. Augustine.
All the unknowns of the author's first singlehanded voyage lead to a fascinating experience, which is shared with vivid description of both scene and mind in this gripping tale of adventure at sea.
Fear is there for us to face, and adventure waits on the other side.
