Synopsis

Ever dreamed of running off to the Caribbean islands?

To plunge headfirst into a strange and captivating new life?

This is the report of someone who did exactly that. It’s a book for dreamers and doers who love the thrills of foreign shores and exotic sensations. Take the helm through spectacular waters, tropical temptations, celebrity encounters, close calls and stunning revelations.

“David Kilmer was a mountain man with zero sailing experience who’d come to a fork in his personal road. He had two options: Settle down or set out. He chose the latter, hopping a plane to the Caribbean with dreams of making a living on the deep blue sea. What transpired next—terror, comedy, self-awareness—unfolds like a voyage unto itself in this witty, insightful, most pleasurable seagoing coming-of-age account.” -Herb McCormick, Cruising World Magazine

“A heartfelt love song to being on a boat in the Caribbean . . . Kilmer’s writing is visceral and emotional. You can touch, feel and smell it. There is a lyrical, poetic way he plays with words. It’s an effortless read, one you can either binge in a day, or enjoy in bite-sized moments as and when you’re in the mood . . . It will intoxicate you.” -Sally Erdle, The Caribbean Compass
