Life and the Sudden Death of Salt Peter (Unabridged‪)‬

There comes a time when prudent and meaningful planning and preparation can become excessive and evolve into an impediment much like an anchor, keeping one in place! Almost always, adventure requires a submission to uncertainty and abandon of the pursuit of omniscience, taking at least, to a significant degree, leaps into the unknown. Such was the case of Salt Peter and her skipper for the duration of a year in the Pacific. 

Originally pursuing a circumnavigation, the journey took the author and his vessel on a 7,000-mile voyage to Hawaii, Tonga, Fiji, and finally, to New Caledonia, where Salt Peter met her end. It was a journey of discovery, both physically and spiritually, with a range of experience to last a lifetime. I invite you to join me on this year-long adventure and experience with me an honest, uncomplicated, and enriching interaction with the seemingly endless ocean and volatile sky and discover with me the rewards of taking a chance.
