About the book
Planning an extended cruise step by step is the focus of Jimmy Cornell's guide, revised in its new edition with his son Ivan. It explains world weather systems and route strategies across the Indian, Pacific and Atlantic Oceans, weighing each route by season against currents, winds, fog, icebergs and gales. The Cornells compare the attractions and dangers of different routes, piracy among them, and cover practical matters: repair facilities, gear that often breaks on long passages, places to leave a boat while flying home, health, provisioning and personal safety. Cornell also lists the ten things that most often spoil a voyage. The book takes an international view, so sailors from any country can use it.
NETOPIA mobilPay founder Antonio Eram said this practical guide keeps him dreaming, since he plans one day to sail around the world.

Also, I would like to mention one practical book that keeps me in a constant state of dreaming: World Voyage Planner: Planning a voyage from anywhere in the world to anywhere in the world by Jimmy Cornell. Because one day I am planning to go sailing around the world.
