A Cruising Guide to Nova Scotia: Digby to Cape Breton Island Including the Bras D'or Lakes
Editorial Reviews
Book Description
Nova Scotia is remote and exotic, yet close enough to be accessible if you cruise New England waters. With some 5,000 miles of pristine shoreline, thousands of offshore islands, and so many anchorages that no cruiser could possibly experience them all, Nova Scotia is one of North America's finest cruising grounds. Here at last is the only comprehensive cruising guide to the challenging waters of the beautiful, rugged Nova Scotia coast. Peter Loveridge has spent more than 20 years sailing and sketching this area in order to create this guide. In addition to his custom-made harbor sketches, you'll find everything else of interest to a cruising sailor, including: Ease-of-access ratings; Descriptions of harbors and towns; Recommendations of restaurants and things to do ashore; Facility listings; Detailed discussions of local weather and the less-than-forgiving tides and currents; Local customs... and Dr. Loveridge's wry observations of the daily scene.
