{"product_id":"passages-cape-horn-and-beyond-book","title":"Passages: Cape Horn and Beyond - Sailing through life’s changing currents - Book","description":"\u003cp\u003eJoin Lin as she shares challenging sailing, gentle voyages, the shoreside encounters that await once you venture into the world of cruising under sail. Far more than just a sailing adventure, this book is also a true memoir. As she and Larry sailed north from Cape Horn to Canada, then westward across the Pacific, they had to weather the emotional passages that come with growing older. Lin chronicles the last years she shared with Larry, the solo adventure that followed and, eventually, the romance and challenge of building a new life and voyaging onward with a different partner after David sailed in to anchor near her island home. Passages: Cape Horn and Beyond will appeal to sailors of all generations as Lin pours her heart out to tell tales of sailing through gales and calms, adventures small and large. It is a love story -- of sailing, of the sea, and of the two men who have shared Lin’s life.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWhat the reviewers say:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“Lin Pardey's Passages: Cape Horn and Beyond is a passionate and well-told recounting of the adventures and triumphs, as well as the trials and tribulations, since rounding the Horn \"the wrong way\" with her husband, Larry, in 2002. It's a remarkable book — fierce, honest, truthful and heartbreaking. And as with every Pardey book, extremely open and well-written. Passages succeeds as a touching memoir and a deep love story (in two parts), but most of all, as a rollicking good sea tale. I forgot how much I loved a good old-fashioned Lin Pardey first-person nautical narrative until I opened this one.”\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e- \u003cem\u003eHerb McCormick, author and roving editor – Cruising World\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\"This is a brave book, written by an indomitable woman and sailor who, now 80 years old, continues to live life “all the way up.” It honors the man with whom she shared more than 50 years of that life voyaging the world’s oceans and inspiring generations of sailors. And though it sails straight on into the hardest of life’s passages, it also celebrates the light that emerges when one has had the strength and courage to endure the storm.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e - \u003cem\u003eWendy Mitman Clarke, Editor-in-Chief, SAIL Magazine\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e“The title reflects both the thrilling sailing adventures of Lin and Larry Pardey and the profound changes in Lin's life.
