Synopsis

Maximise your enjoyment of cruising on England’s East Coast rivers, from Lowestoft to Ramsgate, with this 70-year-old guide which has been significantly revised for its 21st edition. Since Maurice Griffiths described this book as ‘the East Coast yachtsman’s bible’ it has been guiding cruisers up the rivers, curlew-haunted creeks and intricate shoals and swatchways with comprehensive pilotage and navigational information set in the context of their history and unique character. The extensive revision and reformatting of this latest edition add to these much-loved aspects of the book by providing: • New details about where to anchor, moor or tie up • More information about the facilities available • Enhanced guidance on where to provision, eat out and what to do ashore • QR codes to give quick access to the latest information on harbour and marina websites Over 200 colour photographs (most of them new to this edition) and over 70 chartlets illustrate the text, making navigation easier and enhancing the cruising experience. You will not only be able to navigate the waters safely but also to absorb the history and atmosphere, allowing you to enjoy this extraordinary sailing area to the full. It provides local knowledge ashore and afloat and is truly your friendly companion in the cockpit.
