Frank and Barbara Fitzgibbon, an ordinary Irish couple in their 50s, decided to pursue a dream to see the world. They sold their home, farmed out their business and traded up their sailboat for a 40-ft oceanworthy yacht, and leaving their family of six young adults, set off on a two-year circumnavigation. Beset by accidents, ill health and dangers, they completed the voyage of a lifetime only to return home to tragedy.
This is a tale of courage and joy, a travelogue and adventure story which will captivate sailors and land-lubbers alike
