Get Real, Get Gone

How to Become a Modern Sea Gypsy and Sail Away Forever...

De: Rick Page

Narrado por: Liam Gerrard

The idea that you have to be rich to travel the world on your own yacht is so universal that it goes largely unquestioned. The ubiquitous images of rich men on super-yachts sipping Martinis only help cement this image. This book hopes to change all that.

Rick's recent appearance on Ben Fogle's New Lives in the Wild chronicled his budget lifestyle and adventures aboard Calypso, and introduced the idea of budget sailing to a whole new audience - an audience who may have never considered the possibility that such a dream could be made a reality, on such a small amount of money. This book is for them and for any experienced sailors who want to cast off the yoke of consumerist yachting and get back to what really matters at sea.

If you are not rich, but dream of seeing our beautiful world from the deck of your own boat, this book is packed full of practical and spiritual advice to help you cut through the endless marketing and identify what it is you truly need to become a modern sea gypsy and sail away on the greatest adventure of your life...

look no further if your looking to live aboard!

Igenerally don't leave reviews but, as my wife and I are starting our journey into live aboard sailing, this was one of the best books I've picked up out there. Rick puts into words what i have suspected but I haven't heard anyone else say. this book is about the mindset you need to try and make this transition and gives great technical advice too. it is absolutely wonderful and cheeky in all the right ways while cutting through bullshit. 10 out of 10 would recommend !

Fantastic

Warning!

DO NOT listen to this while driving to the rat race. You might not get out of the car when you get there.

This was a very enjoyable read. It brought tears to my eyes a couple times. The narration was perfect for the subject.

Thank yall for this book.

Love this book!!

This is full of so much great information and motivation!! I actually read it and went and bought my first yacht to start my sea gypsy life 😊

Top Notch

In every category, this is a superb book.
About half way through listening I jumped on Amazon and ordered a copy in print because I'm sure it will become a reference!

Captivating

I enjoyed every moment of this book. Rick the author lays it out in a real way with humor and suspense. Perfect book for a novice like myself. He puts sea gypsy life in perspective. He even took the time to write back to my email! I’m gonna go check out his next book asap.
