Pleasurable reading

As an armchair adventurer this book grabbed me in immediately. The stories the passion for sailing was funny and a life instructor. Both, Guru and Capt Fatty are delightful story tellers and men that had the guts to follow their dreams.

Great book. Great guy. Great life? I'm not totally convinced, but I think I will try it sometime...

Quite engaging book and lots of fun and I had a good laugh too. A woman's date picked her up in a sewer truck! Hint, hint quite different and way cool.

Great yarm

Sit down, hold on and prepare for a fast paced ripping yarn. Larger than life and twice as drunk. This is entertainment at its finest and some of may even be true. Good that some are having fun. Too many of us are selling u our selves short in the grind. A delight when someone escapes and tell the tales

This is a breezy easy read that feels like a scattered collection of tall tales told by an old sailor, but it does paint an intoxicating picture of the cruising life. It doesn't matter if it's 100% true or 100% bullshit, it's still a fun read, and makes me want to sail the Caribbean Sea

[Bonnie Odin]

Fast read. Enjoyable and funny
