Tina Dreffin, in Bluewater Walkabout, wrote a story that spanned a network of activities and preluded a life of sailing with her husband, Peter, and their sons. They were later joined on this sail by two brothers, Sam and Gary, who are sons of parents presumed to be their family friends. Before then, she wrote of her life growing up with her sisters, Lilly and Carol. She also wrote about life as a young girl going through college and having to deal with and survive sexual assaults from someone close to her at first and supposed clients or work partners later on. They sailed and gained a lot of experience and learnt a lot of lessons in the process. Experience the thrills of sailing on the sea by reading Tina Dreffin's Bluewater Walkabout

I love the suspenseful and thrilling nature of this book. The author explained the events in a way that would draw the readers in and keep a good interest level, despite being a replica of actual life events. The pictures the author added at the beginning of each chapter added to the beauty of the book. Her choice of words was really great and would be duly appreciated by a large demographic of readers. She portrayed nature at its finest and made good observations too. I found no error in Bluewater Walkabout, so it was exceptionally well edited.

The displeasing aspect I discovered in this book was its technicality. A reader who is not well versed in sailing, seas, and ships, in general, will find it a bit difficult to understand and enjoy the book. Apart from that, there wasn't any other part of the book I found displeasing.

I give Bluewater Walkabout by Tina Dreffin a rating of 4 out of 4 stars. Despite the issue I wrote about in the third paragraph, the book is still worth every star because it is very thrilling and exciting to read. I believe the readers will also think the same. At the start, I wasn't sure I would enjoy a book of this nature, but I had an amazing time reading through its pages. The creativity of the author is not in question, as it is clear for all to see in the pages of this book.

I recommend this book to every lover of stories relating to sea sails. They will not only find it interesting but will also learn a whole lot from it. Also, lovers of adventures will find that the book is worth every second spent reading it. They will also pick up life lessons too in the course of reading the book.

Sailing memoirs can be a great reminder of the beauty and power of nature.
