Customer Review #1:
 Informative, unpretentious, and entertaining.
I was captivated by this story of a 60-something couple taking the voyage of HIS dreams. While their particular trip in itself was not extraordinary --- many boaters do this --- the authors wry and self-deprecating sense of humor makes this account of their adventure an outstanding read. It is also chock full of very useful information, but primarily it is just a good book to curl up with when you feel like escaping to an achievable dream.

Customer Review #2:
An amusing and practical book
This account of the authors cruise from the Great Lakes to the Florida Keys and back is informative, easy to read, and entertaining. Its a must-read for anyone planning a similar get-away, or for armchair travelers who just dream of going. The author tells the good and the bad, detailing sights, sounds, and people. I enjoyed this story a lot, and found it chock full of useful details. Good book!

Customer Review #3:
 A quick year
The book gives a quick overview of a long journey. Its an easy read, but the details are thin for anyone looking to make this journey. "Honey, Lets Get A Boat" provides better information and detail than "Our Year". Most of the pictures and maps appear to be borrowed from cruising guides. It does give some highlights, that are extracted from newsletters the author wrote - which is the impression I got while reading it - a compendium of personal newsletters to friends, rather than for someone looking to make this journey.
