Championship racers and professional adventurers disclose their favorite destinations in an inspiring volume of stories, travel tips, and photos.
Featuring some of the best-known men and women in the sport-Tom Whidden and Gary Jobson (members of the winning 1987 America's Cup crew), Jeff Johnstone (of J-Boats), award-winning sailing writer Lin Pardey, and many others-this is a unique full-color celebration for sailors to relive their greatest memories or plan their next big adventure. The amazingly diverse places they've selected include:
Australia: Fremantle and Sydney
Bermuda: St. George's Harbor
Brazil: Bay of Ilha Grande
California: Channel Islands and San Francisco Bay
Chile: Cape Horn
Italy: Costa Smeralda, Sardinia
Maine: Boothbay Harbor, Penobscot Bay, Southwest Harbor
Florida: Biscayne Bay and Key West
Scotland: Firth of Clyde
South Africa: Cape Town...and dozens more
For each place, the sailor recommending the venue spins an entertaining yarn about their experience there, and each description is accompanied by a "make you want to go there now" photograph. From the relative indolence of cruising the Dodecanese or the British Virgin Islands, to the white-knuckle adventure of rounding Cape Horn, to the thrill of partaking in the regatta off Newport,
Fifty Places to Sail Before You Die captures the rich and varied world of recreational sailing-and may just inspire you to set sail on some new adventures of your own.
