Spanish Edition 

John Marchment has produced the revisions for this edition of the RCC’s well-known guide to the long Spanish Mediterranean coast between Gibraltar and Denia.

   Although only three years have passed since the fourth edition was published there have been numerous changes, none of them major but all of relevance to yachtsmen. More pontoons have been added in a number of yacht harbours, facilities have changed and users’ comments on the last edition have been adopted. This edition includes the introduction of waypoints. All positions in the text have been derived from C-Map electronic charts to WGS 84 datum.

   This is an important pilot for yachts coming to and from Northwest Europe and the Atlantic from the Balearic islands and more distant parts of the Mediterranean. The clear sailing directions provide all the essential information for passage making or hopping along the coast between harbours and anchorages.

A4. Hard cover. Full colour. 166pp

About the Editor:

John Marchment started sailing in 1946 in a Bristol Channel Pilot Cutter, Christabel, from Falmouth and has, since then, sailed in most oceans of the world in all sorts of sailing craft, ranging from a Firefly to a 12 metre. He has owned a Shearwater catamaran, a Contessa 26, a Rustler 32 and a First 345. Initially his sailing was concentrated on the Channel Isles/Brittany coast areas which are easily accessible from his home in Weymouth.  In 1984, he was fortunate to find a job in La Spezia, where he spent 8 happy years sailing/motoring in the Mediterranean with the First 345.
He has worked for the Pilotage Foundation for 9 years and has been responsible for writing several editions of most of the western Mediterranean areas.
