Choosing a mate is like picking house paint from one of
those tiny color squares: You never know how it will look
across a large expanse, or how it will change in different
light. Meet Janna and Graeme. After a decade-long tango (together,
apart, together, apart), they're back in love -- but the
stress of nine-to-five is seriously hampering their
happiness. So they quit their jobs, tie the knot, and untie
the lines on a beat-up old sailboat for a most unusual
honeymoon: a two-year voyage across the Pacific. But passage
from first date to first mate is anything but smooth
sailing. From the rugged Pacific Northwest coast to the blue
lagoons of Polynesia to bustling Asian ports, Janna and
Graeme find themselves at the mercy of poachers, under the
spell of crossdressers, and under the gun of a
less-than-sober tattooist. And they encounter do-or-die
moments that threaten their safety, their sanity, and their
marriage. Join Janna and Graeme's 17,000-mile journey and their quest
to resolve the uncertainties so many couples face: How do
you know if you've really found the One? How do you balance
duty to others while preserving space for yourself? And,
when the waters get rough, do you jump ship, or do you learn
to navigate the world...together?
