Clyde Cruising Club Sailing Directions

Imray

£32.50

Cruising Scotland’s west coast is an intricate undertaking. A combination of exposed passages, tide rips and overfalls, narrow rock strewn entrances and complex, often squally, wind patterns would send any skipper hastening to seek local knowledge. The four volumes of sailing directions published by the CCC incorporate a respected series of Yachtsman’s Pilots by Martin Lawrence, expertly combined by Edward Mason. They focus on practical detail of pilotage and anchorage; historical and cultural information has been collected into a companion volume, Cruising Scotland. Mason commends the very large scale electronic Antares chart series as being particularly valuable for this area. The Gaelic glossary looks helpful too.
