First published in 1988 as West Country Cruising, Mark Fishwick's
definitive sailing guide for the ever-attractive coastline of Dorset,
Devon, Cornwall and the Isles of Scilly combines a skilful blend of
pilotage and cruising information, with historical insight and
suggestions of where to eat and what to do ashore. For those who plan to
head west, this book is more than essential reading - it will enhance
your enjoyment and prove to be a worthy and much used addition to the
ship's library. Those already in the west will find themselves regularly
thumbing its pages. Share Mark Fishwick's passion for this region which
combines with his in-depth knowledge from a lifetime cruising these
waters to create a text which will inspire and inform you. It is
enhanced with colour charts and detailed photography, including
spectacular aerial shots of ports, harbours and anchorages, many taken
in 2020. This latest, ninth, edition is fully updated for publication
and further updates are provided every Spring on the Fernhurst Books'
website. More than one satisfied reader has aptly described the book as
"the perfect on-board companion".
