Book Reviews of World Cruising Essentials : The Boats, Gear, and Practices That Work Best at Sea

Book Review: A statistical report. Name misleading.
Summary: 1 Stars

I was disappointed buying and reading this book. From its name, I was sure that the book tells you what BEST WORK AT SEA. I found it gives statistics of many boaters most of them amateurs, using this or that equipment. Implying, that what all amateurs and others are doing is the best. I bought the book to know what Jimmy cornell thinks is best. The problem with amateurs, and I am one of them, that we get fludded by info from manufacturers, and "Friends". There is a lack of professional advise in these areas.
