After two years of sailing around the Caribbean on their catamaran, the crew of ¡Qué Bárbara! flipped a coin and decided to keep cruising—through the Panama Canal and across the Pacific Ocean. The First Mate could have called it quits, so what persuaded her to continue? The seduction of exotic place names like Galapagos, French Polynesia, Bora-Bora, Niue, and New Hebrides.
But worry and work sucked the living breath out of romance aboard; would it also wreck their marriage? Would following her husband’s dream cost them their relationship? And then there was the Jekyll and Hyde nature of the sea and the Captain himself…Was this any way to spend their retirement?
Join the Sea Gypsy-Pirate Queen and Captain Mr. Fix-It as they plot a course to Australia through the treacherous waters of cannibals, pit bulls, boy racers, and boat brokers, all the while trying to steer clear of the reefs of marital strife and the rocks and hard bars of dipsomania. ¡Qué bárbaro!—how marvelous, how miserable!
If you've ever dreamed of chucking it all and sailing away—read these books first!
