Product Description
This is the best Gunkholing area in the entire Sea of Cortez, with 44 anchorages within 38 miles of the two marinas at San Carlos. These anchorages have given the author much pleasure for more than 40 years. This remains the only comprehensive guide to this wonderful cruising ground with over 50 areas described in detail with 57 photos, and 36 detail charts in 92 pages. Includes many personally recorded GPS positions. The guide starts at Guaymas Harbor and runs north up the mainland coast to Bahia Kino and includes the southeast corner of Isla Tiburon and 3 anchorages where it overlaps the Cruising Guide to the Middle Gulf. Shorelines from Mexican 1:50,000 topo series, the only survey of the Gulf using modern methods. Spiral bound, to lie flat.

5 out of 5 stars Cruising Guide to San Carlos   December 28, 2003
I have used this guide for years while sailing in the Sea of Cortez on the mainland side and Baja side. I have also met Gerry personally. He is a wealth of information and I found his book easy to use and even though it is not recent many things do not change in the cruising area that he writes about. The basic landmarks and anchorage guides are still the same. I highly recommend it for use if you enjoy the cruising life in the Sea of Cortez. It provides valuable referances from his point of view because he has been to every place listed in the book!


4 out of 5 stars Good info   August 1, 2001
The info in this book is very good, if just a bit out of date. Since this deals mainly with things that don't change much, being a few years old is not a big drawback.

Of the areas I am familar with, this is right-on, so I expect the same to be true of the rest of the book... I am anxious to use it for more exploration.
