LookingForCruiser is on a distinguished road
Just finished reading that "Sail" book by Patterson, I had never read anything by him before. It was incredibly bad. Each chapter took about 2-3 pages, and had a mini cliff hanger. Could count the number of 3-sylalble words used on one hand. Technically it was brutal, a book named "Sail" written by somebody who does not appear to have bothered sailing a boat. Ignoring the goofs, the plot itself was just unbelievable. The giant snake trying to eat people in the Bahamas was the icing on the cake.
