Author Description

This handbook from the RCC Pilotage Foundation, covers the Northwest and Northeast Passages through the Arctic Ocean. Incorporating information collected on a number of voyages over recent years this work is an impressive resource which brings together experience and background data on a region that is not only in the news but increasingly accessible to cruising yachts. Arctic and Northern Waters is in the same style as other PF pilots and is a practical cockpit reference as well as a source of inspiration for planning. This second edition contains revisions and additional information some of which has already been published in the annual supplements. There are new photographs and harbour plans...'Thank you very much for this invaluable reference work!... it's astonishing the amount of information in it - I wish that everyone who is going to the areas covered would have a copy of it!
