keith is a man who says he going to do something and follows through with it. Great wit and cool stories of them sailing around the world.

If you can find this book somewhere, by all means get it. It was one of the funniest, most inspiring books that a wannabe cruiser could every read. On their way for a 'round the world cruise, they lose their boat almost out of the gate. This would have stopped a lot of people. Instead, this couple dragged their Yamaha trail bikes out of the wreck, rode them across the Baja desert and started all over again. The dialogue between the "MCP" author and his long-suffering wife is so hilarious it still makes me smile after all these years. If you're going cruising you need a sense of humor. If you read this and don't find it funny, reconsider.

Interesting stories... told in a dated way. I want to say it was a fun read, but not the best writing
