Cruising the Queensland Coast - Third Edition - Book

This book is an essential reference for yachts cruising the Queensland coast.

Each of the 13 coasts, from the Gold Coast to the Cooktown Coast, is covered in detail, including marinas, anchorages, public and private moorings, passages, wind and wave averages, public pontoons and quick reference information.

It features hundreds of chartlets and high-resolution aerial photos of anchorages to take the guesswork out of anchoring. Each anchorage has information on depth, bottom, marine park zone, recommended wind directions and strengths, mobile reception, TV reception and Starlink.

It is also an extensive reference of useful information needed when preparing to cruise the Queensland Coast such as skills and experience, apps, charts and books, equipping the yacht for cruising, cruising logistics, climate and weather systems, marine hazards and the three marine parks and their rules. 

The book has been fully updated for the third edition. New in this edition is a Starlink land versus ocean infographic for each anchorage and mooring.  

It is also available as an eBook for iPad, Android, Mac and PC on the Apple Books, Google Play Books and Amazon Kindle stores.
