    I'm already down on my Plimsoll marks and all those books might put
    me under. I wonder if the Sailing Directions have more detailed info
    than Ocean Passages for the World which is a single volume with
    charts for powered and sailing ship routes--as well as wind and
    current charts, as I recall.
