Finding Pax is a fast-paced memoir of mystery, searching, determination, and discovery like no other. Around the world sailor, writer, and traveler Kaci Cronkhite knew better than to buy a wooden boat. But, in 2007, smitten by the voluptuous curves of a beautiful 28-foot Danish spidsgatter--she did. "The boat appeared when I didn't expect or, frankly, need her. My bucket list was empty. Life was full." Within days of import to Port Townsend, Washington from British Columbia, Canada, the boat became the focus of an evolving mystery. One after another, people drawn to the boat began to ask questions and offer hints, tips, and stories from sightings from in remote Vancouver Island, 1980s California, and 1930s-50s Denmark. Stirred by decades of lost history and history untold Kaci embarked on a seven-year investigative research journey-from Canada and the United States back to Denmark which inspired generations. This is a love story about a woman and a boat, written in prose that is poetic, spare and full of wisdom. A brave, inspiring story about following questions wherever they may lead and accepting the unknowns. Finding PAX was a Shortlist Finalist for The Mountbatten Awards Best Book of the Year 2018.
