Product Description
Between Long Island Sound and the elbow of Cape Cod lies a richly varied cruising ground. Here is the definitive cruising guide to these waters, the newest addition to International Marine's acclaimed series. Its coverage extends to the headwaters of Narragansett Bay and miles offshore to the solitude of Block Island and Nantucket. It includes essential information on weather, currents, and pilotage. The unique harbor rating system shows at a glance what each anchorage offers in facilities, protection, and beauty or interest. Maps and photos help negotiate tricky channels or find that hidden marina. Also included are hiking trails, picnic spots, fishing, history, and wildlife.

5 out of 5 stars A Cruising Guide to Narragansett Bay and the South Coast of Massachusetts: Including Buzzard's Bay, Nantucket, Martha's Vineyard   March 8, 2008
Great guide to all the inlets in Narragansett Bay and surrounding areas. The book has all the place we know of and we agree totally and we can't wait to try out the places we didn't know about.
Thank you for a great book.

Being very familiar with boating on Buzzards Bay i was drawn to expand my sea ventures. This book gave a great dipiction of the waters along the south coast of Mass and RI. I have already traveled to many of the destinations the book discussed. what a great service the author has done for the boating community

I lived and sailed Narragansett Bay all my life and never knew the history behind all I was looking at. Excellent book and great fishing section!

I always wondered what those old ruins were hidden on overgrown islands, the history of secluded anchorages.... Great naturalist, along the shore information. Excellent cruising guide!
