Description

Ocean Passages and Landfalls is a handbook for world cruisers. It provides invaluable passage-planning information for crossing the oceans, with discussions on climates, seasons, oceanography and the merits of different world cruising routes. The bulk of the book is an Ocean-by-Ocean round up and at the beginning of each of these sections is a description of routes, followed by information on the countries relevant to these routes. Details of formalities and regulations are then followed by esential information on key harbours and landfalls. The book is fully illustrated with over 300 charts and plans in full colour. It is a completely up to date reference by authors who have between them sailed in all the oceans that are discussed in this book.
