A circumnavigation in a Salar 40. Tony and Audrey Walter are like
thousands of other amateur sailing couples, just ordinary people
living a normal life but one of them had a dream. The book is an
illuminating and compassionately written account of their voyage
round the world in a Salar 40. Each chapter includes an account of
both Audrey and Tony's own individual thoughts and observations.
They visited many countries and various idyllic and exotic islands
that most people only dream about. Their portrayal of this conjures
up images of the varied lives people lead, from paradise to
absolute hell. They experience numerous gales including a force ten
off the Great Barrier Reef and many gear breakages while on passage
hundreds of miles from land. Their sometimes unusual and
resourceful methods of remedying the various situations are well
documented throughout. An encounter with armed pirates off the
coast of Somalia in the Gulf of Adren and how they escaped more
serious consequences is also a terrifying yet enlightening tale. It
was initially Tony's dream to sail around the world but it soon
became a challenge for them both. This is the true story of how
they achieved it.
