New Pilot book

Paul Heiney — Fri, 29 Jan 2021 00:30:36 GMT

My book, just published by Imray and the Pilotage Foundation is available now. Might help anyone heading to these waters https://www.imray.com/Publications/Imray+Pilots/Pilots+and+Cruising+Guides//IB0252/ Sorry about the price. Nothing to do with me

It’s a rounding error relative to the other costs of cruising. Money well spent.

Thanks Paul.Whilst I agree that the RCCPF books are pricey, considering their limited print runs I suppose that’s unsurprising. And in view of all the work that goes into collecting the information and then writing and editing, they seem a bargain.In any event OCC members are reminded that Imray courteously offers us a 15% dscount: so rather than the listed price of £60, Paul’s book is available for only £51.

Hi Paul,
Congratulations and good luck with it.
The price for these limited sales books that are so important to us who follow after is such that it seems little money to pay for the legs-up in approaching new-to-us cruising areas. I, for one, have always appreciated the hard work I know that went into the guides.
My best, Dick Stevenson, s/v Alchemy
