| While we were deciding which chapters to keep, which to delete and what new information to add for the 3rd Edition of Capable Cruiser one of us came across Jordan Rich’s story about her reaction to returning home at the age of 14 after several years of cruising with her family. (May 2009 issue of Cruising World magazine.) When I contacted Jordan, she kindly gave us permission to reprint her complete article here. With the information she provided added to several grand encounters with children we’d met as we cruised in recent years, we decided to definitely update and include the chapter on Children and Cruising in this newest edition. For those who wish to read the whole book, it is available for Xmas 2009 on our website. It should be in stores in February 2010.
