Covering the North Sea and Baltic coasts of Germany and Denmark, this guide is a companion to Brian Navin's North Sea Passage Pilot and Cruising Guide to the Netherlands. It is organised on the basis of carefully selected routes which pick up most of the harbours in the area that it covers. The combination of text, plans and photographs provides all the essential details and plans of ports that are covered. This new fourth edition contains extensive revisions that have become necessary since the last edition was published in 2006. Throughout the area changes have occurred, and whilst many are trivial, in some instances there have been substantial harbour works. These are reflected in amendments to the plans and also the large number of new photographs which Brian Navin has taken during recent visits to Germany and Denmark. Over recent years the area has seen an increasing number of visiting yachts from the British Isles, and Cruising Guide to Germany and Denmark is established as the standard companion for these English speaking visitors to this wonderful cruising area.

This new Royal Cruising Club Pilotage Foundation title is the successor to Brian Navin’s cruising guide to the area, covering the exposed North Sea coasts and the more protected Baltic Sea coasts of both Germany and Denmark. Coverage has been updated and expanded from specific routes to a comprehensive sequence of ports and anchorages along each area of coast, with introductory information about places of interest to visit ashore. Author Nicholas Hill cruised the region extensively for many years and has enriched the text with new photographs throughout. Plans include up to date hydrographic data for both German and Danish waters. This cruising guide is an ideal companion for those who plan to explore the more challenging, shifting coastline of the North Sea and the comparatively gentle and intricate indentations and archipelagos in the entrance to the Baltic. It is also a useful resource for anyone sailing on a more direct passage through to the Baltic Sea proper.

Covering the North Sea and Baltic coasts of Germany and Denmark, this guide is based on selected routes and provides all the necessary details and plans of ports along them. Now in its third edition, this text provides more detailed coverage of the coasts of Mecklenburg and Vorpommern to the Polish border, an area that has seen many changes in the last decade.

This is the fifth editon of 'Cruising Guide to the Netherlands' which was first published in 1988. It is regarded as the authoritative companion for anyone cruising the Netherlands using fixed mast routes. Brian Navin's guide is based on popular selected routes which offer an opportunity to visit most of the regions of the Netherlands from the estuary of the Schelde up to the IJsselmeer and Waddensee. This new edition follows the same pattern, and includes corrections and updates that have accumulated since the fourth edition was published. This includes amended harbour plans and new photographs taken by the author. 'Cruising Guide to the Netherlands' is one of a well established series of guides from Brian Navin.

Beautiful, secluded anchorages, picturesque canals, bustling marinas, dramatic cities - all await those considering a Baltic cruise.The nine countries bordering the Baltic Sea offer an immense variety of cruising grounds, people and cultures. There are thousands of harbours and innumerable anchorages, and it would take an entire bookshelf, to cover them all in detail. The information contained in this book has therefore been chosen for its value both at the planning stages - preparing the yacht, choosing the most suitable route, timing and communications etc - and again on arrival, when a general overview of each individual country is followed by specific harbour information. Where detailed cruising information is readily available - effectively Germany, Denmark, Sweden and Finland - only selected harbours are covered, chosen, with a few exceptions, as fulfilling certain key needs. Where cruising information is more limited - Poland, Kaliningrad, Lithuania, Latvia, Estonia and Russia - many smaller harbours are also featured in detail. In addition to comprehensive suggestions for further reading (and sources in each country from which they may be ordered) more than 200 websites are listed, again chosen for their relevance both at the planning stages and en route. Details of internet access points are included for most major harbours. This 4th edition (2017) has been produced by a team from the Royal Cruising Club and contains substantial changes. Apart from the routine updating of the text and plans - many newly drawn for this edition - and the addition of new photos, there are also some major changes. In particular coverage of Finland has been reorganized, and reflecting the fast pace of change since the last edition, the Baltic States and Poland sections have been improved significantly.
