I intend to have you feel the wind at sea, to taste the salt on your lips, to hear the wave as he rushes toward you, to smell the sweet scent of land yet beyond the horizon. I want to put your hand on the smooth varnished spokes of the teak wheel so that you feel the living motion of this sailing yacht, and have you brace your feet against the roll of the ship as you reef the mainsail at sea.
But there is so much more than this. There is the beauty of quiet anchorages, in waters of such startling clarity that illusions of unreality are experienced. When looking from the shore, you can see not only the yacht above her waterline, but also see her full keel and the anchor chain arching downward from her bow. She can seem to be suspended in air, because the lagoon is invisibly so clear.
It is my intent, not just to have you hear my voice as you read this book, but if you wish, you can be part of this voyage.
It gives me pleasure, indeed honor, to welcome you aboard.

I have a hard time picking up these books, because when I start reading the stories, I don't want to stop! When you buy these books, make sure you have plenty of time to sit and read. It's easy to imagine myself in the far away places written of. To see, hear, smell, and feel the excitement of their experiences makes me long for my own sailing adventure. Sadly, I don't think it would be the same to take an adventure like this, today. Our world has changed so much... technology has brought people closer together, in one sense. Yet, danger is still out there, but much more sophisticated. The warmth and friendliness of the native islanders must have been a joy to experience... I remember watching many National Geographic shows on TV as a child and thinking how blood-thirsty the natives are whose culture is so different from our own. And yet, they are just people like us in so many ways. What a life-changing experience it must have been to spend 14 years sailing the South Pacific. Dan's writing style is so engaging. You will enjoy these books.Product details

Wow, what an adventure!
This is a sailing trip in 2 parts. Book 1 details the dream, the preparation and the start to this years long saga.
Reading this, I felt like I was right there with them. Sailors with 'round the world' dreams should read this.
Thank you Dan and Peggy.
I've always wanted to cruise in a sailboat so I loved all the nitty, gritty details of the Vanginhovens life aboard their boat and the planning that went
into the preparation for the their trip. Looking forward to Vol. 2 to see if they met anyone I know at some of the islands they visited.
