Peter and Susan Wagner set sail on a 41-foot elegant classic sailing ketch named La Boatique. They begin their journey along the southern shoreline of Lake Erie at Port Clinton, Ohio and end it in Opua, New Zealand.
They discover adventures both at sea and ashore. A rogue wave nearly buries La Boatique during the trip from Bermuda to the Eastern Caribbean. While touring the Caribbean island of Montserrat, an active volcano erupts. They trek through jungles to find sparkling waterfalls. They watch huge leatherback turtles lay eggs on a beach, blue-footed boobies dive for fish, and a huge humpback whale swim alongside their boat with her calf at her side. They survive hospital stays including surgeries in the tropics. They define the tasks required for cruising, boat maintenance jobs, and how to handle funds needed for cruising in the age of the Internet and ATMs. They demonstrate inexpensive ways to communicate with friends and family through the use of a web site and single side band e-mail.
