So Where Do You Go at Night?: A Sailing Adventure to the South Seas and Alaska

en Limba Engleză Paperback – 30 apr 2014

Patrick, a civil engineer, and Heather, a legal secretary, decided on a change of lifestyle. They built a 42' fiberglass sailboat from scratch in their garden in 6000 hours "in an almost improbable" three years. After successfully racing it for a while, they departed for French Polynesia with their two children, Jeremy 16 and Erica 12.

They harbor-hopped down the Californian and Mexican coasts, crossed the South Pacific, visiting the Marquesas Islands, Tuamotu atolls, Tahiti and the Society Islands. Departing from Bora Bora they headed back north visiting the Hawaiian Islands. For a temperature change and, not the usual route home, they continued north to view tidewater glaciers in Alaska before returning to Vancouver and work after a 15,000 mile, 14 month marvelous adventure.
