Description

It's dark, 10.30 at night and your ocean-going yacht runs up on a reef in the Caribbean. How would you cope? What would you do?
After losing their floating home of two years, find out how the Oliver's, a New Zealand couple in their late fifties, deal with it.
Follow their adventure of a lifetime, from the purchasing of a boat over the internet, their voyage, good times, health issues, subsequent disaster and beyond.
Experience passage making on their Tayana 37, 'Chinook Wind' as they cruise the world. This is a book that will set you thinking, maybe life does begin in your fifties.
For those wondering just how to deal with a faulty cutlass bearing?.....commissioning, provisioning and commiserating, its all there.
