Story
Come aboard with Heyward and Charlotte as they transform a worn-out hull into a first-class blue water cruiser. Then take off and cross oceans with them, feeling their desperation when equipment failures force ingenious workarounds in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Share the highs of navigating the crystal waters of French Polynesia and the lows of crossing pirate-infested waters in the Indian Ocean and Gulf of Aden. Travel ashore with them to places not covered in travel brochures, meet natives untouched by the modern world, and navigate the political waters of Guantanamo Bay.

Publisher's Summary
She was geared up for love and adventure. But she was about to sail into a maelstrom of trouble....
Michelle Segrest dreamed of checking one giant challenge off her bucket list. Boarding a 43-foot sailboat to rekindle her relationship of six years, she set out on the eight-month voyage from North Germany to Alabama filled with hope. But suffering extreme seasickness and heavy gales in the Baltic proved the least of her problems when she faced abusive gaslighting from her partner.
Unable to keep food down long enough to help when maintenance issues struck, Michelle’s only comfort came from her two devoted beagles. But though she was desperate to find the positive side of her secretive lover, the confined space and the harsh crossing of the notorious Bay of Biscay pushed the journalist to her breaking point.
In this powerful account of a woman’s attempt to overcome enormous obstacles, Segrest charts an epic journey combining an individual’s survival story with a fascinating sailing journal. And by sharing her deepest anxieties and raw experience of life on deck, you’ll witness how one novice sailor’s increasing nightmare turns into a soul-searching quest for meaning.
Life on a 20-Degree Tilt is the tumultuous first book in the three-part Living Life Sideways travel memoir series. If you like intensely personal narratives, ocean-going challenges, and brutally honest self-assessments, then you’ll love Michelle Segrest’s emotional storm.
