At first glance this pilot book looked a bit short on detail. However we have just spent ten weeks sailing along parts of the Turkish coast and we ended up using it as our first choice pilot book.
It has an up to date section on entering and leaving Turkey and how to make amendments to your transit log. It is particularly good on the details of what is available in different bays and ports. e.g. an ATM, a laundry. We located an ATM in a holiday village off a beach which saved us going into a harbour specifically to get cash, and where other books state there are laundries in the town, Watson tells you exactly where to look. She is also good on tourist information. What is missing (in comparison to RH )are the large number and detailed descriptions of anchorages. The harbour plans are good and there are plenty of useful photos. Recommended, as a useful reference.
