A Smuggler's Guide to Good Manners

Languages : en
Pages : 296
Book Description
A true story of terrifying seas, double-dealing, and love across three oceans, taking the reader on a smuggling voyage from the Atlantic down the Red Sea to Kenya, to Thailand and back across the Indian Ocean to Spain and the Netherlands. Notwithstanding medical emergencies at sea, sharks, pirates, monsoon storms, and the Guardia Civil, backing off was not an option. As much a story told from the life of the author, it is the story of a young "Kenya Cowgirl", Arianna, who became his crew and lover, as re-told through her journal entries. It is a story still passed along in a hundred bars in faraway ports where seafarers drink and wait out stormy weather.

Book Description
Welcome to the world of adventure. This book is not a lexicon for would-be cruisers. It is a book with which to relax as you read the story of the fulfillment of one couple's dream to sail their own boat across the oceans of the world. If you love the sea, are afraid of it, or wonder whatever possesses people to set out in a small boat, read on and enjoy. This book is for dreamers. Those who hang over harbour walls looking at the boats below; or those, some of whom we would meet on our journeys, who are landlocked yet, for some mystical reason, dream of the sea. I hope this book will be savoured during the quiet times of many busy lives. For not only is it a book of our discovery of this magical planet and the people who, by chance, make it their home, but it is also a voyage of discovery of ourselves. Through the isolation and challenges of ocean passage making, we learnt about ourselves and each other, which in itself is a priceless reward.
