Becoming Dad

By J.C.W. Helmkamp

There is no greater adventure than that of Fatherhood--but William is about to embark on one adventure that might just rival it.

Having been entrusted with his late father's pride and joy, The Grace--a classic sailboat, William has quite the quest ahead. He must leave the comfort and familiarity of his everyday life to embrace the spray of the sea, the balance between the tumultuous fury of the forces of the world and her grandest displays of natural beauty, to challenge his own fortitude and resolve in a way he has never done before.

What lies before him is the journey of a lifetime--a 1,600-mile sailing expedition from the cold, autumnal American Northeast to the turquoise waters and white sands of the Caribbean, and back again.

William is full of doubt and fear at the magnitude of the quest that lies before him. However, with unexpected help and support along the way, he should be able to survive the journey; after all, he reasons he has survived Fatherhood relatively unscathed, with only a few bumps and bruises, and nothing can be harder than that. Can it?

But with difficulties and challenges come rewards, and William has his eyes set on one: a beautiful, mysterious island, as detailed by his father. Finding it will mark the utmost measure of success and is how William will determine his own self-worth--not only as his father's son, but also as his children's father.

To fail would be catastrophic.
