About the Book

Crossing the Pacific Ocean from Hawaii to Canada against the prevailing wind can be a challenging voyage. Imagine the passage in November, with two unknown crew members and an unfamiliar boat disintegrating around us, and the stage is set for Salt Water Rain. The wild wonders found only far at sea will transport the sailing novice and rekindle buried memories for the initiated. Linda's first book is a compelling and moving story of one boat that made it back.

Just barely.
