Customer Reviews

A true mariner's dream and up to date information.

I can not believe that John and Pat Rains could beat theinformation in all of there other guide books but here it is. I justfinished the 1999 book and have been cruising in many of the areas they cover over the last three years. I sure wish I would have had this book. The informaiton that is between the covers is local knowledge and inside information that would have taken me forever to find out on my own. One of the greatest improvements over previous copies of the older versions 1,2, & 3, (this is 4) is humor. Yes John and Pat even have found humor after what must be one million miles on the high seas. I can recommend this as "essential" safety gear for any boater, power or sail, cruising in the grounds that that are covered, and that is a lot of ground. If you are going to Baja, Mexico, Central America or making the big canal trip you better have this next to the nav table. Truely a life jacket for every cruiser and great entertainment for the arm chair captains of the world. I never have recommended any book so highly to all of my fellow masters out on the high seas.
