World Voyage Planner
Jimmy Cornell, bestselling author and experienced sailor, has collaborated with his son Ivan to produce this fully revised third edition of World Voyage Planner.

- World weather systems
- Strategies for sailing long or short circuits in the Atlantic, Pacific and Indian Oceans
- The pros and cons of different routes at different times of year (taking into account weather, currents, wind directions and strengths, likelihood of fog, icebergs, gales, piracy etc.)
- Practicalities (repair facilities, common gear breakage on extended voyages, provisioning for a long trip, places to leave the boat to fly home if necessary, health considerations, personal safety measures etc.)
