About the Book

No boat? No budget? No sailing experience? But an urge for ocean adventure... No problem! Sail the Atlantic Ocean as a Crew MemberDiscover what it feels like to wake up on the ocean, breathe the ocean air, have the wind in your hair, navigate by the stars, live simple and resourceful, and be eye to eye with dolphins. Day in, day out. Travelling an ocean on someone else's sailing boat is not a straightforward endeavour. To be ready to expect the unexpected, careful investigation and preparation is essential. In this Atlantic ocean sailing guide you will discover HOW TO: Start the adventure! Take that first step out the door.Find a sailboat ride: where, when and why. Plan, pack, prepare and provision as crew.Check safety, reliability and the happy-factor of the boat, captain & crew.Deal with seasickness, limited resources, waste, watch-keeping & more.Make a positive difference for the health of the ocean. Packed with practical advice and stories, Ocean Nomad guides you from the idea of "someday I would like to go on a sailing trip", to sipping a coconut on the other side of the Ocean celebrating the achievement. JUMP ON BOARD!This is the Black and White print edition of the book. About the AuthorSuzanne Van Der Veeken hitched her first sailboat ride across the Atlantic as a complete newbie to the world of sailing. She has now sailed across the Atlantic Ocean three times on a strangers' sailboat. In fact, she has explored almost every ocean on the planet with this nature-minded way of travel. She has figured out how (and how not) to catch rides on other people's boats. Her ocean adventures have amazed her to the beauty of nature, but also the challenges the oceans are facing. With Ocean Nomad Suzanne aims to help adventure-seekers experience the magic of the high seas, to broaden horizons, and encourage positive change for the ocean. You can learn more about the book and author on Oceanpreneur.coReviews: "This ambitious sailing guide book is the spark that will ignite your sense of adventure and provoke your compassion to create a better world." Monique Mills - Captain & Ocean Advocate"An inspiration and fantastic guide on sailboat hitchhiking the Atlantic and ocean preservation. It should be on every yacht out there at sea." - Steve Green (Yacht Master Instructor and Ocean Master)"A must read for everyone who loves the ocean. Suus hands you the guidelines for sailing adventures and she clears the path for all your 'but what ifs' and the 'yes buts'..... Yes, the book is about hitch-sailing and loving the ocean, but most of all she encourages you to take the step to pursue the dream instead of postponing it. So read the book, explore what works for you and create your own ocean adventure!" - Lonneke Rentinck (Aspiring Sailor)"I was absolutely amazed: is it really possible to cross an ocean if you don't have sailing experience!? Inspired by Suzanne's adventures and her very well provided details and information on sailboathitchhiking, I felt ready to throw off the bowlines myself. And I did!" Janneke Dijkhuis (sailboat hitchhiker)Though this guide has been written for (aspiring) crew, it is a must have onboard every boat. Not just because it is packed with tips for both captain and crew, but also because it gives a clear insight in the minds of hitch sailors. This is more than a 'if-you-can-dream-it-you-can-do-it/-if-you-just-put-your-mind-to-it-it-will-happen' guide. Just the fact that Suzanne undertook the effort to seriously look at the skipper's point of view gives this guide a unique completeness. Seriously, it is part of my ship's articles: I want every crew member to read it before they step on board! - Edwin Butter (Captain)If you are considering sailing the Atlantic or want to learn more about hitchhiking on sailingboats this is the complete resource.
