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 experienced
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 Aden 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.
