I wrote a book!Learn More
While at anchor in the South Pacific, I wrote a book about my voyage. From daunting weather to relationships sweet and sour, wild waves and boat repairs, this very personal memoir shares my many challenges, my search for harmony with nature, and how I come to feel the unity of all things. The team at Patagonia Books, along with illustrator Daniella Manini, bring my story to life with amazing art and four photo galleries. It’s a work of enormous love, with the intention to inspire others to follow their hearts, protect our planet, and live out their dreams. Ask for it in your local independent bookstore, order online, download as an e-book, or listen to me read it as an audiobook. While at anchor in the South Pacific, I wrote a book about my voyage. I’m excited to share the personal story of my voyage with the world. Book available now!

The First Rule of Sailing…

Posted on Feb 15, 2011 | 2 Comments

I heart Swell.

“You know what the first rule of sailing is? …Love. You can learn all the math in the ‘verse, but you take
a boat to the sea you don’t love, she’ll shake you off just as sure as the turning of the worlds. Love keeps
her going when she oughta fall down, tells you she’s hurting ‘fore she keens. Makes her a home.”

—Cpt. Mal Reynolds, Serenity

Love makes magic… Happy Valentine’s Day!!
