About this listen

The cruising tale is full of the sights and sounds, the fragrances and native customs of foreign lands, especially Central American and the Caribbean. It is a story of a leisurely sail through the Gulf of Cortez and on through Panama Canal to the Azores and England. Cruising in Seraffyn is also a carefully thought out guide to living aboard a small boat, with fun and economy as the guiding principles. Four appendices provide data that is vital for anyone comtemplating long-distance cruising.

Catches a bygone way of life perfectly

Timeless classic recalls childhood days on small boats, perfectly paced and narrated beautifully.
The sequel has been ruined by being read as if listening in fast forward!

Great audiobook if you love sailing...

Having listened to the Mediterranean Adventure and now this, I love what the Pardees have done, but sadly some of the narration lets it down. Pauses where there shouldn't be one, to help the sentence make more sense, and also lack of research on pronunciation. E.g. Ibiza - it's pronounced Ibeetha, and lead line, its led line, not leed line. Other occasions slip my memory. It's better overall than the Med Adventure, as there's other errors in that and lots of obvious studio cuts and changes in ambience.
Still, a great listen though and you feel you are there.

Richard.
