This guide to Chile covers the coasts from Arica in the north to Cape Horn in the south, and includes Isla de Pascua and Islas Juan Fernandez to the west. Chile's vast coastline offers the complete range of scenery and is one of the last easily accessible places on the planet where yachts can explore little known waters and find previously unreported anchorages. This fourth edition is a compilation of information gleaned by many visiting yachtsmen, edited into a coherent and thorough guide. It offers detailed, fully updated sailing directions for almost all the important harbours and anchorages, many of which are documented here for the first time. The detailed text is supported by revised colour sketch plans throughout. The book now contains full colour photographs which relate to the sketch plans.

Pacific Mexico, A Cruiser's Guidebook

BIM045

Pacific Mexico: A Cruiser's Guidebook, is the most up to date and comprehensive guide detailing the anchorages and harbours of the Pacific mainland coast. The guide contains in depth coverage of the harbours and anchorages used by cruising boats travelling along the Mexican mainland coast from Mazatlan to Zihuatanejo. For boats continuing south towards Central America, harbour charts are included for this more remote section of coast. In an area where the official government charts can be up to two miles off, boaters can travel with confidence knowing that the locations described in this guide are illustrated with 72 original GPS accurate chart-lets featuring detail not available elsewhere. Chart-lets are derived from current surveys, satellite photography, US and Mexican topographic and bathymetric data, as well as the author's first-hand exploration. GPS way-points including prime anchorage locations, approaches, and navigational hazards accompany each chart-let. Detailed charts don't necessary tell the whole story, so the authors have also included stunning colour photography, high resolution aerial photos, and annotated approach photos. And since the cruising life doesn't stop once the anchor is dropped or the dock lines are made fast, detailed city maps, marina guides, fuel, stops, provisioning locations, surf breaks, hiking trails, dive and snorkel sites and much more are also included with each location, helping voyagers make the most of their time on this beautiful and friendly coast. Important cruising information such as weather, ham and SSB radio nets, customs and immigration information, marina locations and layouts, fuel availability, boat haulout facilities, and marine chandleries are among many of the features detailed throughout. Sample itineraries are also included to fit a variety of boater's schedules to help insure that readers don't miss a thing while exploring the Pacific mainland coast.

Southeast Asia Cruising Guide Volume II

BIM166

This is the first of the two-volume set of the Southeast Asia Cruising Guide to reach a second edition. It is the only guide that covers the entire length and breadth of a region frequently visited by round-the-world sailors, many of whom leave Australia to head west. This edition concentrates on the most frequented routes and includes the most popular stops. There are hundreds of possible anchorages, the most popular of which are usefully summarised in tables. Introductory sections cover planning and the last part of the book deals with more general topics including advice on provisioning and the problems that are often faced by cruisers. Stephen Morgan and Elaine Davies first arrived in the region over 30 years ago. They work in Hong Kong- Stephen Davies as Director of the Hong Kong Maritime Museum and Elaine Morgan as a writer and editor. While this pilot is aimed at yachtsmen and indeed was surveyed from the Davies/Morgan yacht, it is just as relevant to the commercial or military mariner. The part of the world described in this work is one of the most interesting on our planet. Culturally, scenically, climatically and commercially- it has everything. This excellent book, now in its second edition, describes it all very enticingly. Set to the usual high standard of the Imray pilots that precede it, this one is spiced up by the wit and anecdotes the authors are so good at.
