In June 2009, Caspar and Nichola created a plan to sail around the world with their young children. Most people thought they were crazy. But over the past seven years they’ve embraced every moment of this momentous chapter of their lives. Five years of planning – the vision, the values, the practicalities, the realities, the excitement, the highs, the lows and the seemingly adventure-stopping obstacles – led to two wonderful years of living their dream – the magical and the scary; enjoying life and learning as a family.

This is Caspar’s story. It’s a story of a fabulous sailing adventure but it’s also so much more than that – it’s an inspirational tale for all those wishing they could do the same; it’s a practical guide to show you just how you can make it happen; it’s a motivational story of leadership and teamwork within a family; and it’s a funny, heart-warming tale of slightly unconventional family life. The fascinating narrative of Caspar’s story is accompanied by useful text features such as tip boxes, sidebars and chapter summaries, so that the reader can easily extrapolate the necessary nuggets about how they can make the dream a reality.

Caspar Craven is an adventurer and entrepreneur, married with 3 young children. He has sailed twice around the world, once on a racing yacht and once with his young family. He has started countless ventures in different sectors and has had far more failures than successes, but noteworthy successes so far have included co-founding and growing Trovus, a data analytics managed service provider, which was acquired by DataTec in May 2015 whilst Caspar was in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Since returning from his travels and while writing this book Caspar has been taking on more and more motivational speaking engagements around the world – everywhere from sailing clubs in San Francisco to youth leadership events in Hawaii to an internet marketing conference in London to business owners in Iceland. He talks on the subjects of leadership and teamwork. www.casparcraven.com; www.familysailing.co.uk.
