We Who Pass Like Foam

by Benjamin Zartman

Overview

A young couple begin their life together by buying a wrecked sailboat from a Florida thrift store, fixing it up and sailing off to a formal wedding in Mexico. Driven by wanderlust and the joy of discovery, they press further along in spite of limited funds and scanty equipment. During the 5,700 sea miles which follow�spanning from the sweat-soaked jungles of South America to the pine-clad shores of Down-East Maine�every sinner, savage or saint they meet adds another thread to the tapestry of an unforgettable voyage.

Editorial Reviews

A welcome and refreshing insight into small boat cruising on a tight budget. With a minimal outpouring of cash, creativity and ingenuity solve a myriad of problems. Their combined endurance during difficult, uncomfortable passages strengthens their resolve to continue their adventure; as other cruisers tell them, �You�ll never be able to do that!� it increases their determination. A story of youthful courage, determination, and joie de vivre, with a surprise at the end.
