Full Description
Susan Hitchcock felt that her family of four was drifting apart, and to reconnect as a family, she decided that they should take to the sea. Sailing for nine months and 3500 miles around the Caribbean, they met formidable challenges, from the volatile moods of nature and the mighty ocean, to cultural barriers on distant islands and their own innermost fears. Though a novice sailor, Susan soon developed an affinity for the water and through both the rigours and the serenity of sailing, her family discovered a new-found intimacy and joy in the adventure of a lifetime. This volume presents her chronicle of life at sea, as well as a meditation on marriage, family and the fulfilment of dreams.
