This second edition of Martin Lawrence's sailing directions for the North Sea coast from the Farne Islands to Cape Wrath has been thoroughly revised. The text and plans have been updated and corrected and the author has provided new photographs. On the East coast of Scotland there are a large number of ports providing varying degrees of shelter, and this pilot describes not only the well known destinations but also the many small and attractive harbours developed in the 18th and 19th centuries when the herring fisheries were flourishing. In each instance Martin Lawrence has provided a plan as well as aerial photographs to support the text. There is good coverage too of the harbours in the Firth of Forth including the access to the Fort and Clyde Canal at Grangemouth and also the entrance to the Caledonian Canal at Inverness. The pilot covers the exposed mainland coast of the Pentland Firth up to Cape Wrath from where Martin Lawrence's well known pilots for the West coast of Scotland take over. Martin Lawrence is a Fellow of the Royal Institute of Navigation. He is well known as the author of The Yachtman's Pilot series. He has contributed to Yachting Monthly and the yachting press in Scotland.

A new guide from the author of the pilots to the West Coast of Scotland. This guide covers from Cape Wrath to the Farne Islands. In full colour, this pilot includes plans and aerial photographs of the numerous harbours on Scotland's northeast coast.

A completely revised edition of Martin Lawrence's guide to the Outer Hebrides from Barra northwards to the Isle of Lewis. This new edition of The Western Isles has been completely updated and improved by the use of colour throughout. Many of the photographs are new and almost every harbour and anchorage is now covered from the air to show the extent of drying rocks and low water channels. The plans have been corrected and are also now in colour. This pilot makes both an excellent on-board companion as well as a useful reference for anyone venturing across the Little Minch to explore the Outer Hebrides - one of the most remote and beautiful parts of the British Isles. Martin Lawrence lives in Scotland and has spent many years exploring the west coast. He is well known as the author of the Yachtman's Pilot series. Reviews: An excellent example of how text, charts and photos can be made to work together to enhance the information available to the navigator. It is also further evidence that this publisher is far ahead of its rivals in presentation of information for the yachtsman. - CT, Yachting Monthly. ...has set a new standard of excellence in sailing directions for the north and west of the British Isles. - MB, Yachting Monthly.
