Offshore yachtsma's friend 2 Nov 2010

By Mr. Hugh Cownie

Format:Paperback

This is a valuable book of warnings to offshore yachtsmen cruising North Atlantic areas and further afield. It includes descriptions of losses of well-found boats even after favourable weather forecats. Paul Gelder's updated version of Coote's orginal is recommended
