Sail to the ends of the planet earth and back again without leaving your preferred seat. When Beth Leonard and her spouse, Evans Starzinger, returned from a three-year, 35,000-mile circumnavigation, they thought they were done with just offshore voyaging. But neither came to the realization how irrevocably that they had been modified by their experience, nor how irresistible the siren songs of the ocean would prove. In comparison, life ashore looked dull and monochrome, and within weeks, Beth knew she had to return to sea to be able to stay true to the person she experienced become. Four years later they set out on the 47-ft . aluminum sloop, Hawk, for a journey that lasted six years and took them more than 50,000 miles. They voyaged to Newfoundland, Iceland, Norway, the Caribbean, Ireland, Scotland, Cape Horn, New Zealand, the South Pacific, Uk Columbia - to the ends of the planet earth and back again. Blue Horizons is Beth Leonard's record of this journey. Compiled from her popular columns in Blue Normal water Sailing newspaper, which she composed on the way, Blue Horizons is more than an excursion saga, more than the log of an extended passage.
