Book Your Summer Shop Summer Reading
The Self-Sufficient Sailor, 3rd edition, Fully Revised and Expanded
This book is a distillation of what Lin and Larry learned during more than 47 years of sailing together, during which they covered over 200,0000 miles on board their two cutters, Seraffyn andTaleisin, and on scores of other boats they delivered or raced. Lin and Larry tell how they have sailed in comfort and safety without large cash outlay, on a pay-as-you-earn-as-you-go plan. They share stories of people they met along the way, and experiences that shaped their lives afloat. They discuss the nuts and bolts of caring for your boat as well as lessons around navigation and travel in far-flung places. Above all else, they impart a feeling of all that is possible by simplifying.

The first two editions of this invaluable text have helped thousands of people who dreamed of setting sail, whether planning a weekend voyage or a circumnavigation. With the third edition, Lin continues to share knowledge gained in recent years—she takes us to new places, shares new experiences, and notes new equipment. And she does it with the same gentle spirit and enthusiasm for travel under sail. Armed with what she is learning as she explores the far corners of the Tasman Sea, she has extensively updated and revised the information from the original edition and added several new chapters. Balanced by chapters written by Larry nearly forty years ago, this edition also includes Lin's new and extensive discussion of the lessons learned as she and Larry safely negotiated the stormy waters around Cape Horn.

Whether you set off to explore your own nearby coastal islands or are planning a trip across the Pacific, this book could be the catalyst you need to cut the ties binding you to shore.
