Sailing to a National Park in Japan #travel #author #sailing
It was rainy season, but my three weeks moored on Zamami Island were special. It was a combination of cruising and a writing retreat.
While there, I received thrilling news: my latest book has been shortlisted for Business Book of the Year in the UK! This recognition is a tremendous encouragement and couldn't have come at a better time.
Before leaving Yonabaru, I had the privilege of witnessing Mr. Minoru, likely a marine engineer, launch his ingeniously adapted dinghy. You can explore his innovative work at www.world-ocean.co.jp. It was also great having my son with me for a few days.
During my stay, I was warmly welcomed by the wonderful team at www.island-power.jp. In the next episode, I’ll share more about them and the magic of Zamami, along with footage of the annual Ginowan to Zamami Yacht Race. With 56 boats competing, I have a front-row seat for the exhilarating finish line action. Stay tuned!
