The Oceans Are Waiting is a true story of newlyweds on a four-and-a-half year circumnavigation aboard a small sailboat. Single for many years, with her children grown, the author found herself facing a solitary future. Little did she know that one step off her familiar path would lead to adventure, romance and a life at sea. What followed was a funny and loving escapade across 35,000 miles of ocean and through many exotic lands. Join the author and her husband as they sail to the Cook and Gala‡pagos Islands, as well as many others aboard their 37-foot sailboat, Tigger. You will be captivated by their honeymoon voyage to little known places like the islands of Rodrigues and Atata. You may also gain a new perspective on several favorite cruising destinations like the South Pacific and the Great Barrier Reef. While there are many sailing books that tell of various journeys, this is undoubtedly the first one by a middle-aged woman who finds a new chance at love and at life because of her dream of a circumnavigation. - from Amzon
