5.0 out of 5 stars Very helpful and well written
This book was a pleasure to read and provided very useful information, helping me prepare for Med cruising.
4.0 out of 5 stars Very useful reading
You can find "all" kind of tips and advices for The Mediterrian sailor in one "small" book. You ca also use this books advices if you sail in The Pasific or so on.
5.0 out of 5 stars great intro
Great introduction to the Middle Sea, you would of course need the actual pilot books themselves by Rod Heikel for your planned theater of operations.
3.0 out of 5 stars Not so useful
Meh. Wouldn't charter the Med with this. Lots of useless advice about buying a boat, and then just a paragraph on each venue. The opposite of what I expected.
1.0 out of 5 stars NOT WHAT I EXPECTED
Thought I was getting a book that provided mostly objective information about ports and such when cruising the Mediterranean. Instead, a substantial amount of the content was fairly basic and opinionated like suggesting polarized glasses or addressing "global warming". Really?! Then again, all the photos are that of sailboats and come from that perspective. This edition was published in 2018 and the world has changed a lot since then. Hoping there is something better out there, especially if you planning a powerboat trip in the Mediterranean.
4.0 out of 5 stars Realistic look at the idea.
If anyone is contemplating this adventure, this book will definitely put things into perspective. It gives you enough information to make an informed decision but it also took away the romance of the idea.
3.0 out of 5 stars Good, but I expected more and deep info!!!
Could go deeper in those themes, a little superficial. notthing more to say, they request a big sentence to describe
Excellent reference and more
I bought this book having done some sailing in the Med and going again this year (to Turkey). I used Rod's Almanac last summer and found it fantastic. This is a different book, and really is quite uniquely useful. Rod has been cruising the Med for years, thinking hard the whole time about what people will need to know. This book covers so much of this experience and distils it down for those of us who would like to do some cruising ourselves. Sometimes people wrote these books and they are wide of the mark because they can't quite judge the needs of people far less experienced than themselves. This is the opposite and I recommend it very highly.
Top tips!
Full of great tips.
Also good comments on budgetary considerations
Very informative. Heikel gives you the feel of the different places he visited, and helps you prioritize your ports of call. Also good comments on budgetary considerations.
Put of date
Very lightweight info, nothing useful as far as passage planning goes. Very expensive for an out of date ebook. Still mentions travellers Cheques for instance
Il Mediterraneo visto dagli inglesi
Il libro è dedicato a lettori britannici che vogliono navigare alle nostre latitudini ma offre interessanti punti di vista sulla scelta della barca e sulla sua gestione, nella prospettiva di navigare nei nostri mari.
