Description:
South China Sea Pilot -Singapore to Hong Kong via the Gulf of Thailand, Malaysia, Brunei, the Philippines and Taiwan.
This first edition of South China Sea is the successor to Stephen Davies and Elaine Morgans Cruising Guide to Southeast Asia, Volume I (Imray). Building on the earlier work, this new edition has been updated and expanded to include coverage of Cambodia and Taiwan.
For the past 12 years, Jo Winter has been cruising these waters in her 45 Island Packet, Brother Wind, and she describes it as one of the most diverse, beautiful, unspoiled and undiscovered sailing areas in the world. The book covers thousands of miles of coastline, a multitude of islands and inland up many of the regions navigable rivers.
Along with a comprehensive range of information to help with planning a cruise in this region, the introductory section details weather information, including coverage of typhoons, and also indicates piracy risk areas to be avoided. Sailing directions include small scale area plans to orientate the navigator and larger scale plans to show details of harbours and anchorages. Full colour throughout, the plans and numerous photographs illustrate key features and places.
Whether transiting the region or planning a more extended cruise along any of the coastlines bordering the South China Sea, this guide is an essential companion.
