Series: Ultimate Adventures

This new edition of Ultimate Sailing Adventures takes you on a thrilling ride around the world's best boats, locations and voyages from amazing passages and destinations, through memorable races and rallies to special boats and sailing experiences. There are exciting adventures that will appeal to everyone from novice to expert.

Stunning, full-page photographs put you at the heart of the action, while inspirational descriptions allow you to dream of being there. It's perfect for planning your next sailing adventure, or alternatively allows you to indulge in some armchair sailing in boats and places that only the richest can afford.

As well as major expeditions, like crossing the Atlantic or sailing around the world, and classic races like the Fastnet Race, there are a wealth of more unusual adventures in a wide variety of boats: from Lake Titicaca to the Arctic Circle and from the turquoise waters of the Caribbean to the icebergs of the Southern Ocean.

Every continent is covered, so expect to find places where you've sailed alongside those you never knew existed. Each entry is accompanied by useful information such as the degree of difficulty, best time of the year and similar adventures.

Discover where you will sail next in reality or in your imagination.
