Crossing the Wild Pacific: Captain's Log of the Yacht Argo Volume 1

"Crossing the Wild Pacific" is the true adventure story of Randy and Rebecca Tisch's crossing of the Caribbean Sea and the Pacific Ocean taken from the Captain's Log of the yacht Argo. It is equally appealing both to experienced sailors, as well as dreamers, or anyone interested in settling back in a comfortable chair and enjoying this "virtual tour" of the world via private yacht. The book describes in wonderfully vivid and interesting detail the passages they made, the storms and difficulties encountered, as well as some of the technical aspects of operating an ocean cruiser. Argo departed from Stuart, Florida, and visited The Bahamas, Jamaica, Columbia, the Panama Canal, The Galapagos, The Marquesas Islands, The Tuamotus, French Polynesia, Samoa, Tonga, New Zealand, and Fiji. Readers learn about ocean and weather conditions during the voyage, as well as the unique people and cultures of the islands they visited. The book is full of colorful pictures and illustrations.
