Cruising Guides
A Cruising Guide to the Maine Coast Hank and Jan Taft with Curtis Rindlaub, Fourth Edition (2002), Diamont Pas Publishing, Inc.
Down East Circle Route, Capt. Cheryl Barr, 2003 This book inspired our cruise on the St. Lawrence! We will use it in future years as we complete the loop. The suggested travel schedule of three months to do the whole loop is very aggressive, especially for a sailboat.
The Voyage of Yankee Lady, Judith Silva, 2013 This book is a narrative of a cruise around New England by three sailboats from Connecticut. It is filled with detailed observations of the ports they visited and the waters they navigated. Aside from its entertainment value as a travel log, this book is a useful adjunct to the cruising guides.
ActiveCaptain This web based database lets boaters share information on marine facilities. The information is more current than in any cruising guide but may reflect the attitude of the boater writing the entry.
