Book Launch: Sail Cowabunga! A Family’s Ten Years at Sea Occidental Center for the Arts Sunday, November 11th, 2018 @ 2:00 pm – 4:00 pm ”No, we didn’t make it around the world, but we were able to wrap the world around us”, Petaluma author Janis Lasky Couvreux writes in her memor, Sail Cowabunga! A Family’s Ten Years at Sea. From Bordeaux, France to San Francisco, California, her memoir follows this Franco-American couple and their two young sons across the Atlantic Ocean and into a ten-year journey at sea. Through their adventures and misadventures, tragedies, and glories across four continents, the Couvreux family rarely had a dull moment living on the water. Janis chronicles in vivid and lively detail how they fended off a midnight intruder, sailed to the microscopic St. Peter and St. Paul rocks on the equator, explored the jungles of French Guiana and Devil’s Island, and sailed through Cuba in the turmoil of the late 80s. Janis Lasky Couvreux is an award-winning writer, journalist, Franco-American,
