Three young men from Southern California navigate their 17-foot Boston Whaler around the eastern United States tackling river and lakes, alligators and snakes, stormy seas and endless summer days. From the Intracoastal Waterway to Old Man River, Chesapeake Bay, Erie Canal, Great Lakes and the Ten-Tom. 6.100 miles of American Waterways and some of the most interesting and affable characters you ever did meet.
"May be the best road trip in a boat since Magellan."

Only in America: An American Boating Adventure by John Mirassou is a rollicking, touching, at times outrageous Valentine to our country, in a story that combines elements of Huckleberry Finn, The African Queen, and Surfin' USA.
This exciting buddy story follows "The Three Johns," twenty-something lifelong friends from Redondo Beach, California, in their 17-foot Boston Whaler, as they take the trip of a lifetime through the eastern waterways of America, a nautical variation on the classic road trip saga. The author's style is so natural and engaging, yet polished and accomplished, that he makes writing seem easy: an effortless telling of an epic adventure by a natural-born story-teller. more>
Taking off and traveling the USA has long been America's route to discovering not only our country but ourselves. To that end, if you are a boater, you will love this book. If you have ever dreamt of taking off and traveling America, you won't be able to put it down. If you enjoy a story about the good ol' U. S. of A., her wondrful places and, most of all, her amazing people, this is the book for you.
