First Mate's Guide to Cruising the Inside Passage: Thriving and Surviving the Water from Olympia to Glacier Bay

Paperback (JoanneWilshin Feb. 5, 2017)
This book is everything the author Joanne Wilshin wished she’d known when she first started cruising the Pacific Northwest’s Inside Passage. “Cruising in the PNW is more like a video game than any where else I’ve said,” she says. And avid first mate, Joanne has compiled the necessities, and more, for anyone planning to first-mate aboard a boat traveling through the Inside Passage from Olympia to SE Alaska. The information provided is expansive enough to help someone chartering in the PNW for the first time, to those planning a three-to-five month cruise to Alaska or Olympia.
