Thousand of yachtsmen visit the Channel Islands but the strong tides and currents mean that most of them keep to the main routes. This book is for those who like to exercise their pilotage skills to explore further. They will be rewarded with fascinating and fast-changing seascapes and interesting anchorages away from the tourist bustle.
The origins of this book go back to the work of Malcolm Robson which was followed by Nick Heath's major update. Peter Carnegie, with detailed knowledge gained through years of sailing and flying the area – and through much discussion with local experts – now presents the pilotage information in a calm and logical fashion and with maximum use of annotated photographs. All the islands are covered – including the rocky outcrops of the Minquiers, Les Ecréhous and Iles Chausey.
Updating photographs and comments are always welcome and may be published immediately as 'Continuing Updates' as well as being reviewed for the formal yearly Supplement.
