Sailing in Paradise: Yacht Charters Around the World

This is a comprehensive guide to the world of chartering in which Rod Heikell shares the breadth of his knowledge and experience, recommending types of charter, the best types of boat, and providing essential information about the world's cruising areas. Taking a practical approach, he explains everything prospective charterers need to know before setting sail: visas required, healthcare, money, and what to expect from foreign harbours and anchorages.

At the heart of the book is a country by country round-up of charter areas around the world with pros and cons, best times to go, wind and sea conditions, harbours and anchorages, eating out, safety, documentation requirements and getting there. Each area is illustrated with a map and colour photos. This guide is a must-have reference for sailors by the guru of cruising and chartering.
