GREENWICH to the DATELINE
Bluewater Cruising to the Caribbean and Pacific Islands
This is a travelogue of our bluewater cruising adventure from the Greenwich Meridian to the International Dateline – sit back with a sundowner and be inspired to cruise to the Caribbean and Pacific Islands.
In this catalogue of rewarding experiences we describe how we converted our travelling dreams into a bluewater cruising reality.
MANAGING YOUR BLUEWATER CRUISE
This Preparation Guide discusses a range of pertinent issues from establishing budgets and buying equipment to preventative maintenance and heavy weather sailing. The text works closely with the ORC category 1 requirements and includes many comments from other cruisers who are ‘out there doing it’.
This book outlines what training courses to attend before leaving, what gear to take, provisioning strategy and, equally important, how to stow it all.
If you wish to bridge the gap between fantasy and reality then your bluewater cruise must be effectively managed.
