Occupation Circumnavigator

A hippy Sell Up and Sail, this entertaining and inspiring book is more

than just a cruising narrative - it is an instructive account showing how

anyone can circumnavigate (or even sail for an extended period) without

huge funds. Lars Hassler originally set off intending to sail for

three years, but by judiciously using his funds, and topping them up by

taking charter guests on cruises, he sailed around the world for ten years.





Woven into the book is advice on costs, distances, timing, power

needs, food and medication - in other words, the practicalities that

everyone who sails needs to know about. And at the end, there is a forward-looking

chapter providing advice on ''After the Circumnavigation - What Next?''





With a Foreword by Jimmy Cornell and a gorgeous photo section, this is

an enjoyable and useful read for anyone thinking, or dreaming, about making an

extended cruise.



''Lars, the modern day Odysseus...is in many respects an extraordinary

person, a man who had the guts to chuck it all in and opt for a

lifestyle that others dream of their entire lives... Any reader

planning to follow the author''s example will find many useful tips on

how to earn a living while cruising. Thank you Lasse!''
