About The Book

Twos a CrewOne of the worlds greatest adventures - Following Flinders wake around Australia - 9000 nautical miles across six climatic zones Jack and Jude explore their adopted homeland. An ancient country one filled with beauty yet harsh remote and containing mysteries that still baffle the greatest minds.Jack and Jude have travelled the remoter parts of Earth for more than forty years. Land trips across America and Europe were followed by a honeymoon trek from England to South Africa. Travelling to Australia in 1969 they homebuilt a ferrocement yacht while starting a family. That took three years of arduous work and their sons Jason and Jerome were walking by the time it was completed so they grabbed the dream of sharing nature and adventure before what seemed mandatory school years. Miraculously their journey lasted not the one-year imagined but the next fifteen. In ever increasing circles the Four Js explored Earth touching 80 countries while they boat-schooled their sons to the final year of high school.Jack and Jude are grandparents now and still aboard the same vessel have just circumnavigated Australia. In their lifetime mankind has dominated the wild kingdom taking whats wanted leaving less for every creature. In doing this the balance of Nature has been upset. And while no one would deny the improvements enjoyed today Jack and Jude often wonder if such a growing impact isnt robbing all Earths creatures of a better life.Comparing todays world with what they had seen on previous travels their stories are peppered with historical notes woven into the adventurous fabric of two grandparents alone manning a powerful sailing craft through some of the worlds most dangerous waters.
