Boris & Shirley King co-authored…
The Unsinkable Spirit, In Search of Love, Adventure & Riches
At the age of 24 Boris & Shirley decided to go for their dream. They quit their jobs, sold everything they owned, purchased a stack of how-to-sail books and set sail for many years cruising the world on a small boat. One more thing – they raised their two sons along the way.
Boris King
Boris King is a sought after professional motivational and inspirational speaker who presents to associations and corporate clients. Boris uses his personal adventure-stories of sailing 150,000-miles as metaphors for 360-degree success in both business and personal life. He shares his experience of surviving seven hurricanes and describes what motivated him to pick up the pieces and start over again. He also uses other stories, i.e.; ‘running out of drinking water’ while sailing in the South Pacific, or ‘the shark that never said die’ as powerful metaphors for risk-taking, overcoming adversity, and meeting the challenge of change.
