After suffering an emotionally-brutal bereavement and against her counsellor’s advice, Jackie ran away. Suddenly within a new culture, with a new husband, and no friends, she was living in the obscure world of cruising with zero knowledge of boats.
Crashing within the first twenty-four hours, Jackie realised life would never be the same again; a floating home with no fridge or hot water, and with a dinghy instead of a car. Suffering self doubts, she became fearful of her new world.
The first off-shore voyage took Jackie into a ferocious storm, which battered her physically and mentally. Amid the raging seas, Jackie shed the fear she’d been harbouring.
Soon she was blissfully voyaging around the world, but she still carried the mixed emotions of losing one man, while falling head over heels in love with another.
Not only did Jackie deal successfully with the challenges of her new existence, she also battled with the testosterone fuelled nautical world to become both a professional captain and a qualified maritime teacher.
Most importantly, Jackie found herself.

I've read a number of nonfiction books and memoirs about sailing, most very good reads. "Of Foreign Build..." was an exceptional story in many ways. First, the writing was fabulous; the author has a gift for making the reader feel present for the events, and it was never boring. I thought there was a perfect mix of detail about the boat, day-to-day sailing, difficulties encountered (some very unusual), adventures on sea and on land, scary or challenging encounters, and relationships with family (back home, but occasionally present for parts of the trip), and friendships developed along the way. Lots of cultural information made for a very interesting and educational read.

The thing that stood out most about this particular "sailing around the world" story was the route taken. This couple was not just sailing around the world in order to accomplish the feat. Although, of course, they had to plan and take into consideration the season and the local weather, they sailed to some very unlikely places. I was shocked that they were willing to venture into waters and countries with aggressive policies toward people (their own and visitors), and even into waters where pirates were a risk. Beyond that, they sailed routes I've never read about in other accounts of long-distance sailing. I was very glad I didn't know where they would head next, and enjoyed the surprises. So, no spoilers from me.

What a pleasure to read a great book, so well-written and so perfectly edited.

I have just finished "Of Foreign Build" and so enjoyed it! Jackie is an amazing writer with an amazing story to tell. She is truly the embodiment of *The Yes You Can* movement. She stepped right out of her comfort zone to go sailing and then became the Master Mariner. I so admire her zest for life and am so glad she is willing to share her stories. Her descriptive writing made me feel that I was in Borneo holding hands with an orangutan and sailing up the Red Sea with her on the lookout for pirates and swimming with playful sea lions on Galapagos and on and on right around the world on Mariah II. I highly recommend this book.
Yeah Noel! You have a good one there!

Whether, like me, you've always dreamed of dropping everything and just taking off in a yacht to see where the wind takes you, or whether you're just mildly curious about those who do, this book is not to be missed.
Written in an easy, self-effacing, personal style that engaged me from the start, the author takes the reader on an epic journey of courage and discovery that is at once inspiring, thrilling, and thought-provoking.

Brutally honest, always upbeat, and often humorous, the author, Jackie, slips effortlessly from beautifully vivid descriptions of the journey and all the rich sights and experiences that presented, to her innermost hopes and fears, and to the amazing love and friendship developed with her new-found soul-mate, Noel.

At the end, she describes how their nine-year journey around the world changed them, and to some extent, I can honestly say that making the vicarious voyage of reading this book has, in a small way, changed me too.

I wouldn't have thought I'd be so pulled deeply into a story about sailing, but this book is entertaining, plain and simple. Jackie Parry does an exceptional job of describing life on the ocean, using her wit and humor to bring her years at sea to life. I had no idea people lived on the water like that, traveling from one marina to the next, gathering just enough supplies to last them to their next destination. And to make it around the world, no less. Simply amazing.

In fact, there were several occasions where I found myself wondering if I could the same thing. Probably not, but discovering there is a life beyond mowing the lawn and taking out the garbage was eye-opening.

This is a wonderful book, and I can't recommend it enough.
