| Publisher Description: Let Cruising in Seraffyn introduce you to a special world. The first of a four-book series, it is full of the sights, sounds and people of Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean and the islands of the Atlantic Ocean. Read how Lin and Larry built their wooden 24-foot engineless cutter and set off hoping for a few months of true freedom in spite of limited finances. Share their excitement as they learn how to earn as they go and sail ever further afield. These two persuasive sailor/writers set out convincing arguments to get you chasing your dream sooner than you think -be it exploring the world under sail or adventuring towards any new goal. A favorite of sailors and armchair sailors for over four decades, this book is more than a first-rate tale and love story; it is also a carefully thought-out guide to living aboard a small boat, with fun and good seamanship as guiding principles. This tribute edition, created by Lin to honor Larry, includes a new foreword, updated appendices and a color insert showing Seraffyn during her circumnavigation and afterwards, under the guardianship of subsequent owners - which proves that Larry really did build her to last for 50 years or more. |
Contributor Bio(s): Pardey, Lin: - Lin has voyaged more than 200,000 miles on boats ranging from 24 feet to more than 60. Her seminars, the 12 books and 5 videos she created, have encouraged thousands of potential voyagers to set sail. Her voyages have taken her to more than 74 different countries. After 47 years of voyaging she settled in at her home base in New Zealand, to care for Larry through his decline due to Parkinson's disease and dementia. With Larry now in full time care, she has once again set sail towards Australia as crew on David Haigh's 40 foot Van de Stadt, Sahula. Between return visits to see Larry, she looks forward to sharing more cruising. Current residence: Australia and New Zealand. Born in /Detroit Michigan, raised in Pacoima, California |
