 | The Cruising Woman's Advisor by Diana B. Jessie There is no lack of cruising books, but most of the few books written specifically for women have been pretty much limited to ``how to be a good first mate.'' This book, the first to thoughtfully and honestly address women's real concerns about the cruising life, was written for every woman who wants to cultivate her own enthusiasm for cruising--as well as for the man who wants his female partner to share his dream. Adressing the nuts and bolts of cruising as well as the psychology of cruising relationships, Jessie answers questions such as: how do you live in such a confined space? what are the real dangers? what do I do about seaskickness? how do you communicate with family back home? how do you provision in foreign countries? if my partner falls overboard, how do I rescue him (or her)? can you combine work with danger? how do you handle children aboard while cruising? how do you schedule your time, and will I be bored? how do I deal with feminine-hygiene concerns? pregnancy? Diana Jessie draws on her own experiences, having sailed almost 100,000 miles with her husband, as well as on extensive interviews with 22 prominent women cruisers. With the help of this book's down-to-earth advice and wisdom, women will discover how to enjoy cruising--whether short term or long distance--to the fullest. AUTHOR: Diana B.
