Sailing in Stitches Review

What agony. There is nothing worth reading in this "book.' To read Sailing in Stitches is to peruse a cranky coots' personal list of intense dislikes. That's it.
John Cocker is a self-absorbed bore. There is not an interesting sentence to be found. It isn't just the lack of content, either--the writing is execrable (Ex: He leaves Dominica, "passes along the coast of Costa Rica"-- on the way to St Thomas (!!!!?)
Pity the poor souls who slaved on the boat for him and THEN also had to pay--both in silver and by having to remain, trapped on the boat,
in the presence of this oafish lout.
I had so looked forward to reading this--it is extremely discouraging to find that there is nothing here but a constant trickle of spleen.
yuk.

Sailing Out of Retirement: Living the Dream Review

This is a wonderful book! One I will surely be giving as gifts to many of my Boomer friends who have even slightest interest in sailing. A combination of poetic philosophical musings (in the intro) and very practical advice on buying a boat, outfitting it and finally, the joys and challenges of sailing it!
Chapter 1 is an exciting and harrowing account of a crossing in the Sea of Cortez which, fortunately, through hard-earned experience, a well-outfitted boat, common sense and some good luck the Djoses survived intact and ready to write this book.
The Djoses are a couple who celebrate the joys of sailing together thereby inspiring armchair sailors to set sail themselves. Highly recommended.

Sail Away: A Guide to Outfitting and Provisioning for Cruising Review

Paul and Sheryl Shard built their own boat and sailed it to the Bahamas. That was the original plan, and then they kept on going! They sailed to Europe and back to Toronto via Brazil, and the Caribbean.
They have been cruising for 10 years now, and are living the dream of many. Rather than a week here and there, or even a year sabbatical, they manage to cruise about six months a year, writing, and filming for their TV show.
This book has been updated and reflects the kind of knowledge that is only gained but doing again and again. They have the right attitude and obviously have found something that works. I highly recommend it for anyone who wants to turn their dreaming into reality.

Ed Mapes's READY TO SAIL!

Things I Wish I'd Known Before I Started Sailing Review

This is a great, easy-to-read book of sailors' "lessons learned," written by a man with much more experience at sea than most of us will ever have. It is not a book intended to teach you how to sail, but one with the intent of telling you how to avoid problems, both on and off the water. It is organized alphabetically, by subject, and the end of the book includes many useful tables, formulas, etc., that you might not easily find anywhere else. It covers various preventive techniques, ways to correct problems if they do occur, and things that merchants and repairmen might never tell you unless you know to ask. I also like that this book includes a fair amount of humor, and that the subjects covered are not all purely technical. Vigor goes so far as to address the phenomenon of "hearing voices" at sea, various superstitions, and even how to rename a boat in a way that doesn't cause it to become unlucky. This is a great little book and is well worth the price
