On May 5th, 1994, at 9.30 am on a chilly, sunlit day, Linda Ford and Geoff Wright, left the safety of Lyttelton Harbour in New Zealand, to venture into the unknown, where nothing would be predictable.


The voyage plan was to follow the famous trade wind route, sailing from New Zealand to England.


All too soon, they found themselves battling their way to Sydney, Australia. Caught in a ruthless storm with no contact with the outside world, they were truly alone. All the romantic notions of the ultimate cruising life disappeared into oblivion.


Step aboard Ebony and take an adventure, an epic 15-month voyage. Experience this day-to-day passionate tale, packed with intrigue, and at times suspense. Experience the delights of the lands visited and learn more about the world of international sailing. This was a life-changing adventure, with a dramatic, unexpected, ending.

Ford, Linda K.: - Welcome, I'm Linda K. Ford, author of Caution to the Wind and Decrypto: Unlock Your Life Journey. I live in Sydney, Australia, and I have worked for many years as a Social Worker and Natural Therapy Practitioner. My love for writing was inspired into action during the 1990s, when I embarked on an extraordinary, 15-month, sailing adventure, from New Zealand to England. It was not until some years later that I wrote my first book "Caution to the Wind," about this life-changing experience. My love affair with the ocean, combined with a genuine passion to support others, is the inspiration behind my writing. I invite you to come on an adventure with me!
