Letters to the Boatyard
I recently received this book as a gift and its the best book I've read in years! Bob & Christine's stories of their journey around the world are an inspiration. They are funny, touching, and very tangible. The friendships they describe are so real, and would renew your faith in the human race. I'm sure many people who read this will be encouraged to set off on their own adventure - wherever it takes them, and however they travel. Thank you for writing it, and sharing all the pleasures of your wonderful trip.

A story of one couple's adventure sailing around the world. "Letters to the Boatyard" is a inspirational tale of a couple who sold up everything they owned and left the safety of Belfast Lough to sail around the world. The pages are filled with anecdotes of the adventure and the people they met. The style of writing is engaging and during my first read through there were moments when I laughed outloud, whilst at other times I found my eyes filling with tears as I shared the trials and tribulations of a remarkable journey.
A recommended read for land lubbers and children of Neptune alike. For the sailing fraternity this story will give sailors the urge to copy the journey. For those with their feet rooted on terra firma the book is entertaining without being technical and exclusive to those that know their fo'c'sle from their coxcombing.
