When I came across a sinking trawler awaiting auction in the Chula Vista marina, I saw the opportunity to fulfill my dream, but acquiring the eighty foot boat would be just one of a multitude of steps in achieving that goal... And once the floating restaurant was operating the adventure had just begun. An arsonist's firebomb, a corrupt marina manager, a clash with a ring of child predators (and some help from Oprah), and a chance glimpse at a sign in Napa all changed the course of the Barkissimo during her journey of adventure. In achieving my life's goal, I found that even the best dreams are bound with seemingly overwhelming challenges and sublime bliss. I discovered how to hold on, how to let go, and how to appreciate the smallest details of a richly lived life. Filled with adventure on the high seas, tales of life abroad, wonderful food, delicious romance, unimaginable tragedy, birth and death, Living on the water is a humorous love letter to the road less traveled.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Scott Locker\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oasis Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/14\/2014\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 428\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.09lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.51w x 0.87d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780996087704\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eHaving attended both the University of Florida and Old Dominion University in Norfolk, Virginia, majoring in Literature and writing, I have worked for ten years as a journalist for wire services and newspapers in California and Nevada, winning a dozen awards for my work.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003ci\u003eThis title is not returnable\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Oasis Press","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":40620211273843,"sku":"9.78E+12","price":21.15,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0555\/9255\/0515\/products\/img_c4b1e4de-0ea0-43c1-abbb-36e11265f652.jpg?v=1670510637","url":"https:\/\/bookstorenmore.com\/products\/living-on-the-water-a-celebration-of-life-love-and-food-aboard-a-classic-yacht-9780996087704","provider":"Bookstore N More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
