Summary: The 2004 edition is out!
Review:


I just received the 2004 edition from the publisher (54th Edition), and like all of the others I've purchased through the years, it is a treasure.

Although I have owned and operated a yacht in the past (the Wild Goose, a 36' ketch-rigged trimaran), I am now boatless. But you don't need to own a boat to appreciate and find this volume useful. Are you contemplating a vacation in the vicinity of the Bahamas, Turks, Caicos, or the Dominican Republic? If you are, you will find this volume useful. Of course, if you are a yachty, you'll find it indispensable. Don't leave home without it.

What's in it? Maps, charts (not navigational, but informational), photos, drawings (especially of islands as seen from the sea--very useful if you're on a boat, viewing a strange landfall) and page after page of details and decriptions of available facilities.

This book is updated yearly, and is just what the doctor ordered when you are entering a strange port without "local knowledge." And for the tourist, the same thing applies. For the skipper and crew of a small yacht, it's indispensable. For the tourist, it's a very handy guide.

Joseph (Joe) Pierre, USN (Ret)

Owner, skipper, the Wild Goose,
Doc. No. 516550 Net 11
