The Cruising Life

Every sailor who has ever dreamed of quitting their day job and setting sail over the horizon for good (and who hasn't?) will love this guide to the cruising life. Wishbook, inspiration, and practical guide to achieving the dream. The Cruising Life shares the wisdom the author and his family have gleaned from years of voyaging around the world on their wooden ketch. The art of living on a boat, says Jim Trefethen, is the art of living well -- which is far more than knowing which anchors to choose. His witty and wise outlook makes this an entertaining guide to finding and buying a cruising boat, saving enough money to quit your job and sail away, and successfully managing seamanship, finances, and the cruising lifestyle.
