 Loved it!!!! August 19, 2008
My family and I recently took a three day sailboat cruise in the Albemarle sound. This was covered in Chapter 2 of this book. FANTASTIC resource. The text gave exact lat. and long. of protected anchorages, restaurant recommendations, location of public showers and pump-out stations, local attractions, etc. This is a MUST HAVE if you are planning a vacation on a boat in this region.
Thanks for a great book.
 Just the facts please! April 5, 2008
Good publication. Could benefit from MANY more detailed maps and pictures as well as MUCH more anchorage information. For the true sailing voyager that won't afford a Marina this may NOT be the right guide for you. Well articulated, but ambiguous prose, can prove a bit misleading. I prefer the dry hard facts outlined in easily referenced, numbered sequences.
The guide is very useful March 23, 1998

I've used the previous edition of this guide and have found it to be very useful in preparing a trip. The guide appears written from the perspective of a small powerboat, thus encouraging quite a few surprizes if taken too literally. It is not clear how "updated" the new edition is. I've found I got tired before I could find substantial changes or cruising insights.
