Cruising Guide to the Hawaiian Islands

Cruising Guide to the Hawaiian Islands

Bob and Carolyn Mehaffy spent over a year on their Hardin 45 ketch, Carricklee, researching all of the anchorages and harbors on all the inhabited Hawaiian Islands, including Midway atoll. The result is the Cruising Guide to the Hawaiian Islands, Second Edition. This updated and revised edition is a comprehensive guide that has something to offer the first-time island-hopper and seasoned Hawaiian cruiser alike. The Mehaffys include detailed instructions for finding anchorages and harbors including a chart for each, as well as hundreds of photographs to illustrate the text. Also included is a short history of each destination, as well as a description of what is going on there today. Introductory chapters cover history and culture, weather and currents, equipment, provisioning, and information on channel crossings. Don't cruise the Hawaiian Islands without this essential guide.
"The Cruising Guide to the Hawaiian Islands provides visiting and local boaters alike with essential knowledge of anchorages and facilities to cruise with confidence in the Islands. Carolyn and Bob's attention to Hawaiian history and cultural sites is intriguing, making this book more than just a cruising guide."
-John Gomersall, Manager, the Phoenician Boatyard, Hawaii
"Paradise can be tricky, especially in Hawaiian waters. Anyone who is going to make the run to the Hawaiian Islands will want to have Bob and Carolyn's book in their chart locker. It is comprehensive, logical, and well-illustrated with drawings of harbors and facilities in even the most out-of-the-way places. Mahalo to the Mehaffys!"
-Don Wallace, Executive Editor, Yachting magazine
Having cruised the Hawaiian Islands for over twenty-five years, I can say without hesitation that the Mehaffys' Cruising Guide to the Hawaiian Islands is the Bible that no cruiser in these parts should be without. I consider this publication essential equipment for anyone cruising these islands."
-Geoffrey S. Curran, Yachtsman of the Year 2000, Hawaii Yacht Club
"I found the Mehaffy's Cruising Guide to the Hawaiian Islands a wonderful resource, the only current one on Hawaii, and as an officer of a local yacht boating organization I recommend it to visiting boaters."
-Mark A. Hazlett, Vice Commodore, Waikiki Yacht Club
