Thank you Black Rose Publishing for this Giveaway. Once again, I found and read a book I would not have found on my own.

This is most definitely a Travelogue with Adventures and sometimes Misadventure.
The author has described in detail his seafaring experiences while traveling the seas while in Mexico, multiple Caribbean islands and Galapagos Islands. In the end, he explains some details are fictionalized.

Anyone who is remotely and naively interested in buying a sailboat, and sailing off into wild blue ocean seeking sunsets and fun will pause after reading this. It is darn hard work and takes incredible skill and tenacity to travel the high seas.

I'm sorry this book was not for me. I never got into it and it just became more boring to me. I tried to get interested, but never really did.
The story of sailing with a cat intrigued me since I am a cat owner, but even that was not enough.

I'm not sure how to improve the story for me and I can just say this wasn't a good read for me. ( )

I imagine this would be interesting for a sailor, but it was interesting for a non-sailor too. I'll never want to be on a sailboat in the middle of the ocean, but I liked reading about it. The only part that threw me off a little was that it was "a novel based on true events." It read more like a travel book but I found myself wondering what was true and what was made up - I think it was a little too much in two worlds for me to love it, and I might have liked it more if it had been clearly one or the other. Still, enjoyable, funny in some parts and fairly light reading.. ( )

I really enjoyed Adventures Off the Beaten Path. Easy to read, funny and well paced. What exciting and terrifying adventures. Not being a sailor myself , I didn’t understand some of the sailing terminology but that didn’t detract too much from the read. ( )
