The Next Port
40,000 Miles. 43 Countries. 87 Islands. Countless Adventures.
The Next Port is the true story of how a midlife crisis led to an around-the-world sailing adventure.
Come aboard with Heyward and Charlotte as they transform a worn-out hull into a capable first-class blue-water cruiser. Cross oceans with them as equipment failures force ingenious workarounds thousands of miles from land. Share the exhilaration of sailing the crystal-clear waters of French Polynesia and the tension of crossing pirate-infested waters in the Indian Ocean and the Gulf of Aden.
Then venture aboard Skimmer as she travels 800 miles up the Amazon River—into a world few sailors ever experience. Along the way, spend a year exploring the historic canals of France and discover that some of the greatest adventures happen far from the open ocean.
Whether you're an armchair traveler, an experienced sailor, or simply someone who dreams of seeing more of the world, you'll find inspiration, humor, suspense, and unforgettable adventure in this remarkable true story.
Along the way you'll visit places such as:

• Guantanamo Bay
• The Amazon River (800 miles inland)
• The Galápagos Islands
• French Polynesia
• The Great Barrier Reef
• Arnhem Land
• Indonesia
• Sri Lanka
• The Red Sea
• The historic canals of France
• Brazil

...and much more.
More than a sailing adventure, The Next Port is the story of an ordinary couple discovering remarkable places, overcoming unexpected challenges, and learning that the greatest rewards often lie just beyond the next horizon.
Filled with humor, unforgettable people, hard-earned wisdom, and moments of genuine suspense, The Next Port is a true story that will make you laugh, keep you turning pages, and leave you wondering where your own next adventure might begin.
