Passages: Cape Horn and Beyond by Lin Pardey

Lin Pardey’s new book, Passages: Beyond Cape Horn will officially be released at the Annapolis Sail Boat Show.

“Lin Pardey’s Passages: Cape Horn and Beyond is a passionate and well-told recounting of the adventures and triumphs, as well as the trials and tribulations, since rounding the Horn “the wrong way” with her husband, Larry, in 2002. It’s a remarkable book — fierce, honest, truthful and heartbreaking. And as with every Pardey book, extremely open and well-written. Passages succeeds as a touching memoir and a deep love story (in two parts), but most of all, as a rollicking good sea tale. I forgot how much I loved a good old-fashioned Lin Pardey first-person nautical narrative until I opened this one.” – Herb McCormick, author and roving editor – Cruising World

This is a brave book, written by an indomitable woman and sailor who, now 80 years old, continues to live life “all the way up.” It honors the man with whom she shared more than 50 years of that life voyaging the world’s oceans and inspiring generations of sailors. And though it sails straight on into the hardest of life’s passages, it also celebrates the light that emerges when one has had the strength and courage to endure the storm. -Wendy Mitman Clarke
