Have you ever had a dream you kept putting off, telling yourself you’d do it when you had more time, more money, more experience? Or does the thought of sailing off on your own sailboat, out on the open sea, make you a little nervous? If this sounds familiar to you, keep reading.

“Slow Sailing” is not just another sailing book. Armando Canepa knows what it’s like to keep putting a dream off, and he also knows the open sea that makes so many hesitate. Sailing solo from Argentina to Brazil, mile by mile, he shows how that same sea can become not a source of stress, but the slow, peaceful adventure it was always meant to be.

Armando Canepa is an explorer of the connection between the sea and personal growth. With over 10 years of sailing experience, a certification in Advanced Coastal Cruising, and having lived aboard his sailboat since 2019, he knows firsthand what it means to leave the dock behind, not for a vacation, but for good.

In simple, jargon-free language, Armando shares his solo sailing adventure aboard his 28-foot sailboat, charting a course from Buenos Aires to the beautiful waters of Angra dos Reis in Brazil. Over 1,300 nautical miles, he offers honest reflections and practical advice at every destination, covering the challenges every sailor faces but few sailing books talk about: building confidence, reading the wind, docking without fear, making critical decisions at sea, handling equipment failures, managing seasickness, and planning an offshore passage.

Throughout, QR codes link to real video footage, the anchorages, the crossings, and moments words can’t capture, bringing the journey to life.

BONUS (free):The complete Audiobook of “Slow Sailing” included with this edition.”The Real Cost of the Sailing Life”, a candid PDF on the money no sailing memoir dares to share.
