World Cruising Routes

The sixth edition of this highly successful book was launched in April 2008 and can be ordered from the UK publishers Adlard Coles Nautical or US publishers International Marine. The book is also available from chandleries or bookshops by quoting ISBN 978-0-7136-8777-4.

This is a fully revised version of Jimmy Cornell’s most popular book: 628 pages packed with information on weather, favourable seasons, prevailing winds along any of over one thousand routes covering not only all the popular cruising routes but also less travelled ones. This latest edition is greatly enhanced by the new data collected by the author during his third circumnavigation (2001-2006).

Quotes from reviews:

"The serious cruiser's bible... don't leave port without it." Cruising Magazine

"What Jimmy Cornell doesn't know about cruising is not worth knowing." Yachting World

"Ferdinand Magellan would have loved this book." Boat US
