Resumen del Editor

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 first-class blue water cruiser. Then take off and cross oceans with them, feeling their desperation when equipment failures force ingenious workarounds in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Share the highs of navigating the crystal waters of French Polynesia and the lows of crossing pirate-infested waters in the Indian Ocean and Gulf of Aden. Travel ashore with them to places not covered in travel brochures, meet natives untouched by the modern world, and navigate the political waters of Guantanamo Bay. Armchair adventurers, experienced sailors, and anyone with a zest for life will find inspiration and humor traveling from one exotic place to the next, excited about The Next Port.

Grab your atlas as you explore far flung places like:

  • Guantanamo Bay
  • Alta de Chao, 800 miles up the Amazon River
  • Galapagos Islands
  • Tuamotu Islands
  • Cook Islands
  • Vanuatu
  • New Caledonia
  • Great Barrier Reef
  • Aboriginal Arnhem Land
  • Indonesia
  • Sri Lanka
  • Eritrea
  • Djibouti
  • Canals of France
  • Senegal
  • Brazil
  • And more

Share their incredible story and hard-won wisdom in a book that will surprise you, make you laugh, and, best of all, take you along for an unforgettable ride.

A must read if you have ever considered living on a boat

If you are considering living on a sailboat this is a great snapshot of what it is actually like. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who has the gumption to see the world on their own terms.

Good but a bit erratic

Good but a bit erratic.
Interesting information about traversing French canals, and Amazon river in Brasil.

Well written compelling story. Awful narrator.

Imagine traveling 40k miles by sailboat to some of the most incredible locations in the world, writing a wonderful account of it all, only to have it absolutely butchered by an atrocious narrator.

I’m not sure who Timothy G Little is, or where Heyward Coleman found him, but this guy is the worst. Aside from absolutely destroying the name of literally every place they went, it seems at times like he just learned to read right before getting on the microphone. Coleman must’ve owed this guy a favor or something.

Otherwise the book is a wonderful account of bucket list locations, and compelling as heck. Sadly you’ll have to suffer through awful narration to hear it.

Great travel book...

1) Didn't like the narrator's style... too abrupt and choppy...

2) Content was awsome... While dated-- still insight information about experiences....

The perfect balance

This book is for me the perfect balance between information and anecdotes, serious considerations and humor, remarkably well written. One book covering, beyond the Pacific gems, less written-about routes and stops through the Indian Ocean, Red Sea, Mediterranean and, cherry on the cake, inland across Europe through canals (good job Heyward, now my wife too wants to do it). And all that talking about places, people, routes, and people again, downplaying their navigation skills and making fun of their mistakes. Remarkable.
The narration was really good. All the French words have been badly butchered, but it’s still a solid five star as we can’t ask for everything to be perfect.

Compelling around the world sailing saga

Enjoyed the fascinating beauty insights and cultural experiences the sailors encountered during their voyage around the world, and the many trials and tribulations encountered and overcome.

Unfortunately, the narrator’s ability to authentically speak phrases in foreign languages and use of foreign accents was dismal.

Overall an illuminating, adventure packed fast moving story.
