The Pacific Crossing Guide : Royal Cruising Club Pilotage Foundation in Association With the Ocean Cruising Club
This is a very well put together book that will help the cruiser planning on a Pacific Crossing. Lots of info on when, where, and why certain stops are suggested. Good weather info can be found, as well as tips on celestial navigation and a lot of great color photos of the areas that will be encountered under way. --Latitudes & AttitudesFor many a voyaging sailor, the vast Pacific, with its thousands of islands and varied cultural experiences, is the ultimate cruising ground. However, Pacific voyaging can raise some intimidating questions: Where do you start? Where do you go? And how do you get there? Thankfully, noble characters like Michael Pocock keep scrupulous notes so the rest of us can buy the book and voyage with fewer headaches. --Ocean NavigatorThe Pacific Crossing Guide will be a welcome piece of news in the lives of passage planners. Coming in the wake of the highly successful Atlantic Crossing Guide, the Pacific edition brings us an outstanding new reference to cruising our favorite ocean, along with a wealth of new and current information on the Coconut Milk Run, perhaps the world's most fabled cruising grounds. --48 North
