Sailing to Newfoundland documents a solo journey on a 40' sailboat from Florida to the remote and uninhabited fjords of the south coast of Newfoundland, one of the few places in the world where raw, unspoiled nature meets the ocean and provides sheltered anchorages. From the author of Becoming a Sailor, Journey to the Ragged Islands, and Chasing the Nomadic Dream, this book puts you in the cockpit, and in the fjords, and on top of glacier-cut mountains in the remote backcountry of Newfoundland.

I found myself with a strong dose of "sailing envy" as Paul took me along with him on this trip to Newfoundland. I joined Windflower and Stingray as well as these supposedly inanimate sea going vessels were given personalities of their own as Paul expresses love and appreciation through the language that he uses to describe them...like friends...family.
Paul doesn't wax overly poetic, even though he is indeed a poet. However, there was a brief moment, just a few sentences, when he was moved to acknowledge a divine creator that spoke peace to me. This narrative in some ways is simply an extension of that acknowledgement and gratitude.
If you had a drone and had it following Paul for this narrative, you would visibly see just one person...on a boat, or forging a new trail and hacking his way through a primordial Newfoundland forest with a machete just because they are there in front of him. This is in part a narrative of a man continuing to make peace with the world and helping us to feel that peace through a simple retelling of one of his solo adventures.
The truth is that you will get some good sailing tips, some insight into what it takes to be a single handed sailor. Heck, you will even join Paul as he does his version of Ahab chasing trout instead of a big white whale.
Enjoy this book for the pleasant ride that it is. I am looking forward to reading his other works.
