"Sailing a Serious Ocean" by John Kretchmer

"Sailing a Serious Ocean" by John Kretschmer

book review by Riley Burnham 5/15/2023

really really good (audio)book(!!)

thoroughly enjoyed this one

a practical guide & storybook of sailing in 'blue water,' which appears to be (deep) ocean

we learn about actual necessities of boats [recommended equipment, etc.], including materials & gadgets, crew-sizes/roles, etc.

John here has made me WANT to sail the Atlantic, or something comparable(!) that's a big feat, hahaha

we hear of rogue waves, hurricanes & tornados, the fun(*) of buying a boat, etc. etc. etc.

​​​​​​​basically i recommend this book thoroughly & will likely keep reading his material
