Book Reviews of Seasoned by Salt: A Voyage in Search of the Caribbean
Book Review: Wonderful adventure for anyone who dreams of offshore sailing!
Summary: 5 Stars
A budding sailor (with my husband), I am constantly devouring sailing-adventure books to fuel my dream of one day sailing the Caribbean or beyond. Having read many such books, Seasoned by Salt especially touched me, as this couple with seemingly no appreciable offshore sailing experience took off from Connecticut, all the way to the southernmost Caribbean on a several-month journey. From page one, I was hooked, as I entered their colorful and wonderfully well-written adventure of successfully overcoming uncertainties (Will any equipment fail? Will we get used to the large ocean waves?) - and vicariously living their experience of turquoise waters, beautiful islands, and the deep camaraderie that runs through the offshore sailing community. Whether you dream of sailing of into the sunset one day, yourself, or simply love a great a book about someone who achieves such a dream, Seasoned by Salt is a definite 5-star read!
Summary of Seasoned by Salt: A Voyage in Search of the Caribbean
Seasoned by Salt is the fascinating account of a one-year cruise, from Connecticut to Grenada and back, undertaken by a sailing couple. The book alternates throughout their complementary voices as they relive their journey. They are not your average tourists. Their story is brimming with humor and high adventure, and reflects a deep understanding of the history, people, and economy of the many islands that they visited.Boating Books
