This revision of the RCC Pilotage Foundation`s pilot updates the combined volume for this area which encompasses the Channel Islands & extends from St Vaast La Hougue on the east of the Cherbourg peninsula, & works westwards along the Normandy & Brittany coasts to Ouessant. Coverage

Includes:: the Plateau des Roches Douvres as well as detailed sections on the navigable rivers. The navigator benefits enormously from the painstaking approach with which Peter Carnegie has documented his own explorations of these, his home waters. His numerous annotated photographs & the many accompanying charts detail the network of transits between the off-lying rocks & islands of the region. Waypoints are used judiciously to further inform, but the emphasis remains on time-proven & trusted methods of safe navigation in these waters of high tidal range & fast-moving currents. The Channel Islands, Normandy & Brittany coasts can seem a daunting sailing area for those unaccustomed to their ways, but ‘ Carnegie’s book provides reassurance & so much practical advice that anyone using it will feel confident of success.` (Yachting Monthly). It is the definitive pilot for anyone interested in the challenge of exploring the less frequently used passages & anchorages.
