JUMP ON BOARD!This is the Black and White print edition of the book. About the AuthorSuzanne Van Der Veeken hitched her first sailboat ride across the Atlantic as a complete newbie to the world of sailing. She has now sailed across the Atlantic Ocean three times on a strangers' sailboat. In fact, she has explored almost every ocean on the planet with this nature-minded way of travel. She has figured out how (and how not) to catch rides on other people's boats. Her ocean adventures have amazed her to the beauty of nature, but also the challenges the oceans are facing. With Ocean Nomad Suzanne aims to help adventure-seekers experience the magic of the high seas, to broaden horizons, and encourage positive change for the ocean. You can learn more about the book and author on Oceanpreneur.coReviews: "This ambitious sailing guide book is the spark that will ignite your sense of adventure and provoke your compassion to create a better world." Monique Mills - Captain & Ocean Advocate"An inspiration and fantastic guide on sailboat hitchhiking the Atlantic and ocean preservation. It should be on every yacht out there at sea." - Steve Green (Yacht Master Instructor and Ocean Master)"A must read for everyone who loves the ocean. Suus hands you the guidelines for sailing adventures and she clears the path for all your 'but what ifs' and the 'yes buts'..... Yes, the book is about hitch-sailing and loving the ocean, but most of all she encourages you to take the step to pursue the dream instead of postponing it. So read the book, explore what works for you and create your own ocean adventure!" - Lonneke Rentinck (Aspiring Sailor)"I was absolutely amazed: is it really possible to cross an ocean if you don't have sailing experience!? Inspired by Suzanne's adventures and her very well provided details and information on sailboathitchhiking, I felt ready to throw off the bowlines myself. And I did!" Janneke Dijkhuis (sailboat hitchhiker)Though this guide has been written for (aspiring) crew, it is a must have onboard every boat. Not just because it is packed with tips for both captain and crew, but also because it gives a clear insight in the minds of hitch sailors. This is more than a 'if-you-can-dream-it-you-can-do-it/-if-you-just-put-your-mind-to-it-it-will-happen' guide. Just the fact that Suzanne undertook the effort to seriously look at the skipper's point of view gives this guide a unique completeness. Seriously, it is part of my ship's articles: I want every crew member to read it before they step on board! - Edwin Butter (Captain)If you are considering sailing the Atlantic or want to learn more about hitchhiking on sailingboats this is the complete resource.

An account of a trans-Atlantic journey aboard a 70-foot yacht with a crew of four. Meditative rather than gripping nothing particularly dramatic happens in the crossing but very readable and full of strong observations on the nature of the sea, the relationship between man and boat, and the interactions among a group of near-strangers in a confined space and utterly dependent upon one another.

An international bestseller. A remarkable true story of one woman's courage. In 1993, Judith and Michael Sleavin and their two children set out to sail around the world. Three years into their incredible journey, a nearby freighter altered its course by a mere ten degrees-and everything changed... After forty-four hours in the icy water clinging to an overturned dinghy, her back broken and paralyzed below the waist, Judith miraculously survived, winding up in a small community on the New Zealand coast. Gripping, unbelievable yet true, Judith's story of courage, survival, and retribution is alternately heartrending and uplifting. It's also a story of unbreakable bonds, of shattering loss, and of one woman reborn through the strength of friendship and the profound love of strangers who became family.

Who doesn't want to quit the rat race and pack it all in to see the world? And it is not as if Sherrie and Patrick were strangers to travel. They met on Patrick's first round the world trip by motorcycle. Sherrie fell hard for the open road and the freedom of two wheels and a tent. How much harder could living on a sailboat be? Or at least that was Patrick's opinion. Sherrie is a Newfoundlander. She thought it prudent to bring up the Titanic whenever Patrick mentioned his dream of sailing around the world. And then they had babies. Which meant that dream of sticking them in a sidecar was no longer so realistic. Because putting imaginary babies in your sidecar is very different from putting breathing ones in. The desire to keep up a semi nomadic lifestyle beckoned, but could Sherrie get over her fear of living on the ocean? And just as she agrees to commit to a life afloat, heartbreak and betrayal threaten to end the trip before it even begins. Confessions of A Reluctant Sailor tells of how one family on the verge of breaking up and a woman brought to her knees with grief, went forward with fulfilling a dream and knitting themselves back together, all the while learning the very real difference between fear and danger. If you have ever dreamed of packing up and escaping the rat race, or even wondered how to move forward during a time of heartbreak and loss, get your copy today.
