Publisher's Summary

All alone for 193 days in his purpose-built yacht Astral Express, New Zealand yachtsman Graeme Kendall crossed 28,000 miles of ocean, facing some of the Earth's most challenging seas. An enthralling adventure, To The Ice and Beyond will inspire you to live your dreams and to never give up.

During his extraordinary solo circumnavigation, Kendall became the first person to sail the Northwest Passage solo nonstop. Sailing east to west, he knocked off the "Everest of sailing" in just 12 days - the fastest recorded. This is a story of determination, meticulous planning, and rugged courage.

Interesting!

Sailing solo through the Northwest Passage! I am not a sailor but of course it was interesting. Lots of detail on the prep. Only a few crisis. The author was mostly in high spirits, unlike the distress / forlorn feelings I have encountered in other sailing books.

Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
