Adventurous! February 7, 2010 Jessica Marsan (currently in the Caribbean) This is a true story full of life, love, and adventure. Captain Dan and Judi knew where and how to live life surrounding themselves in paradise, from the Caribbean, to Colorado and Oregon. No matter what hardships they faced or a new place they discovered, the beauty of the outdoors, their love for each other created their sanctuary. Just as good as book I, a great read!
What an Adventure! December 14, 2008 G. W. Todd 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
My wife and I read both books shortly after they were published. We actually bought them at The Captain's Lady book store in Florence and met Judi. If you want a real "armchair adventure" then you'll enjoy them individually or as a set. If you ever dreamed of a life on the sea they are the next best thing to being there. The books tell of the life of two soul mates meeting, losing almost everything and starting over again by running a charter business in the Caribbean. A true love story together with it's joys and sorrows. Highly recommended.
Voyage Of The Capricorn Lady Book II August 13, 2008 Marie B. 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
While on our first real "adventure" after 34 years of marriage, we wound up at a condo in Florence, OR.
My husband wasn't well, so we only walked a little in Old Florence, supper at Waterfront Depot and retired for the evening.
With no TV to watch, I looked for a magazine or book to browse through.
I picked up Capricorn Lady II and didn't want to set in down.
After I read about Florence, Eugene and Captain Dan being sick, I started to read passages to my husband.
Here we were in that very town, on an adventure like no other and "my captain" not well. I read until I couldn't anymore, I wanted to know their whole story.
Even though we are "land lovers", we still had so much in common with the author and her Captain.
The strength, courage and endurance Judith showed, time after time, helped me to deal with a sick husband a long way from home.
Capricorn Lady II was a blessing when I really needed a friend.
Once home, I found Voyage of the Capricorn Lady Book I, to read.....the rest of their story.
THE CAPRICORN LADY SAILS AGAIN March 2, 2006 Janet K. Hargarther (Sarasota, Fl.) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Sail along with Dan and Judi and the Lady in the second book of their life as they charter the best sailboat and motor yacht in the BVI. You can almost smell the briny sea and taste Judi's gourmet meals as page after page unfolds a story of life on the ocean and the people they encounter. After reading Judi's story, I felt a strong bond with her and now know why I admired her so much when chartering. Her books are a pure delight.
A review of both Books 1 and 2 January 11, 2006 Nancy 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
The Voyage of The Capricorn Lady is a voyage anyone can take without leaving your living room. From the moment I began reading, I understood that Judi was not only sharing with us a wonderful part of her life, but developing a bittersweet peace within herself as she wrote. She writes simply and beautifully as she takes us on a voyage of success, failure, and success, peppered with the determination and self doubt we all experience. As we come to know Judi and Dan, we can relate to their difficult choices, and we can rejoice in their happiness.
Throughout this journey, we are confident that Dan and Judi's business savvy, and devotion to family and each other will inspire them through their most difficult times.
These books are not only a tribute to a man by his wife, but a true to life experience of living a dream laced with laughter, danger,and above all love...
