A homemade schooner, a restless crew, and a plan to sail the world. From the nerve-racking launch to calms and cyclones across the Pacific, this log brims with island nights, shark-bright seas, and encounters from Hawai‘i to the Solomons. Hard lessons in seamanship, money, and health turn bravado into grit as the romance of the South Seas collides with the true cost of chasing it.
