Description

Having grown up by Sydney Harbour, Anne’s love affair with the sea and, later, ocean sailing was ‎sealed from an early age. After living in three different countries with three different sailing ‎partners, she eventually sailed around the world in the 36′ steel yacht ‘Kiwi Dream’ with her New ‎Zealand partner, Alan Forrest.

Taking five years and doing 33,000 sea miles, visiting twenty-nine ‎countries, hitting two whales, surviving a rat infestation, and wearing out two sets of sails, going a ‎less unusual route via Cape Horn (the Everest for sailors) until they were stopped by COVID-19 in ‎the remote Patagonia Chilean channels in 2020, before finally returning to New Zealand.

Woven ‎through the book, are some of the author’s encounters during forty years of sailing and yacht ‎deliveries. From crossing the Atlantic on a square-rigged ship to sailing the Northwest Passage and ‎fighting hurricane force 4 winds in Antarctica.‎
