Description
The Atlantic Sailor’s Handbook is a practical and informative guide for sailors traveling in the Atlantic region, whether for long ocean crossings or coastal cruising. Written by Alastair Buchan in association with Yachting Monthly, the book combines the experiences of a wide range of sailors and professionals. It provides an overview of weather and sailing conditions, wind and current systems, seasons and route choices in the Atlantic, as well as useful advice on planning, safety and local conditions. The book covers both east-west and north-south sailing and serves as a good supplement to more pure ocean crossing guides. This is a solid reference work for sailors who want a better understanding and safer sailing in Atlantic waters.
