World Cruising Routes is a comprehensive guide to nearly 500 sailing routes, and brings together all the necessary information for planning an extended cruise in any of the world's oceans. It covers all the important subjects; the best time of the year for each passage, prevailing winds and currents, weather, best routes through tricky waters, and approaches and ports of entry for various landfalls. The third edition has been thoroughly revised and expanded and includes nearly 100 new routes. Also new are the many latitude--longitude coordinates of waypoints to be used for navigation.
