A Thinking Man's Guide to Voyaging South: The Many Facets of Caribbean Cruising - Paperback

by Frank Virgintino (Author)

Frank Virgintino, author of numerous Free Cruising Guides for the Caribbean, has been working on "A Thinking Man's Guide to Voyaging South" for almost a year. Roughly 200 pages long, the Guide addresses everything North American sailors need to know to get to the Caribbean safely through a discussion of various routes from North America to the Caribbean as well as a discussion of the entire Caribbean - which the author breaks down into four quadrants. The author hopes that the Guide will allow for a clearer understanding of the entire Caribbean as well as the various routes that can be employed. Not only does it cover routes to the Caribbean from N. America and cruising routes around the Caribbean, it also looks at all aspects of preparation, weather and Gulf Stream information, safety and security and local knowledge and advice imparted by someone who has cruised the Caribbean extensively for many years.
