Storytelling for Sailors
hosted by Lin Pardey and Friends

Can you top up your ‘freedom chips’ by sharing your cruising life with others? Whatever format you think will work for you, it all starts with storytelling. In Storytelling for Sailors, we will teach you how to make your story stand out from the rest.

Lin Pardey, along with several special guests, will share tips and ideas on what nautical readers and viewers want to know. You’ll learn ways to ensure your photos, diagrams and video footage add information to your stories and attract attention. For those interested in selling articles to print and online magazines, she’ll show how to get noticed by editors, ways to present work that sells and ideas for expanding your markets. Guest speakers will discuss handling online media and ideas to keep folks watching your YouTube channel.

Special guest authors and editors will cover book creation and publishing, including the realities of self-publishing vs traditional publishing. You will also be given a clear picture of what returns you can expect - along with the pitfalls and the practicalities of adding writing, blogging, photography and video making to your cruising life.

Several other cruisers who are successfully earning cruising funds with blogs, books, YouTube channels and podcasts will join Lin or present by video to add in-depth information on their specialized fields.

Our waterproof charts are printed on a

waterproof material using state of the art
printing technology. The waterproof
material accepts pencil markings well and
also erases well. The paper and printing process has been certified by NOAA and deemed to be suitable to withstand the
rigors of use in the marine environment.

TIP: If you plan to frame or laminate a chart using heat, then do not choose waterproof because the material can melt under heat.

These charts are not recommended for navigation.

DECORATIVE ANTIQUED CHARTS

This is a unique line of decorative charts prepared by Paradise Cay Publications.

  • This is an art piece prepared with the look of a well-used chart with the patina of antique parchment.
  • Printed on our high-quality heavy paper.
  • We have added an additional border to allow for framing.
  • Shipped rolled, never folded.

The short side of the chart is always printed at 36" and the long side will vary depending on the chart - please do not order framing prior to receiving the chart. These will memorialize your favorite coastal area in vintage style and we have added to the standard border of the typical NOAA chart to allow for a more professional, frame-ready presentation.
