Description

The new Cruising to the Broughton Islands is an updating of Peter Vassilopoulos’s popular cruising guide North of Desolation Sound. This new edition expands on the material in the former edition with many new and additional colour photographs taken from the air as well as while boating in the area. It includes a guest piece on Seymour Inlet and takes in the passage around Cape Caution to the Discovery Coast. This is one of three coffee-table guides to the coast Peter has produced. The others are Cruising in the Gulf Islands and Cruising to Desolation Sound.
