Subject: Re: [worldcruising] Necessary Books?

I found Nigel Calder's Boatowners Electrical and Mechanical guide a great general how to set up or fix something. It got my starter motor going by telling me where to whack it with a hammer.
The Steve & Lina Dashews' Encylopedia of Offshore Cruising is good but expensive.
Then there are the many accounts of trips and big storms. Either they paint a rosy picture or scare the pants off you. But both styles are worthwhile reading. Go browse the library first.
I read Rescue in the Pacific which describles the storm and boats in 1994 on the way north from NZ.
Jimmy Cornells cruising world cruising guide and routes books are good planning books but lack the detail needed to cruise a country. His website is worth looking at www.noonsite.com
