Described as the bible of cruising sailors, World Cruising Routes is the definitive reference book for long-distance navigators. This completely revised and updated edition has drawn on the latest weather information and other recent developments to provide the most comprehensive aid to planning a safe voyage to any part of the world. With over 1,000 sailing routes in all the oceans of the world, from the tropics to the high latitudes of the Arctic and Antarctic, it contains essential information on winds, currents, regional and seasonal weather, as well as optimum times for individual passages.
This edition has been fully updated to reflect the recent changes in global weather conditions. Geared specifically to the needs of offshore navigators, this ninth edition assesses the consequences of climate change on sailing routes and provides over 6,000 waypoints to facilitate the planning of individual passages. Much of the information contained in the book was gathered during the author’s three circumnavigations and voyages to Antarctica and the Northwest Passage. World Cruising Routes is the perfect one-stop reference for planning a voyage anywhere in the world. It is a companion volume to both World Voyage Planner, which offers invaluable planning strategies and advice on long-distance voyaging, and World Cruising Destinations, which gives practical information on all the maritime nations of the world, with details of their main cruising attractions, climate, formalities, marinas, repair facilities, charter operators, cruising guides and relevant websites.
