Solent Cruising Companion

"The layout is clear and content good… a good book to browse through on a wild and wet day stuck on your berth planning for the next voyage across the open water to the wild and exotic towns and creeks of the Solent." (Little Ship Club) “It goes methodically through all the harbours in the Solent which one could possibly enter and its factual information on the facilities in each harbour is second to none.” (Classic Sailor) “Aslett provides clear navigation and pilotage advice for each location and a separate panel of useful information (fuel, gas, showers, places to eat etc). A good companion and the photos and chartlets are excellent.” (Yachting Monthly) “The book is simply set out with text illustrated by many photographs that give not just the detail but also the flavour of the area. There is something for everyone, either the crew who think they know everything about the area, or the visitor sailing in for the first time. There is approach information well illustrated with chartlets and a good range of contact details from coastguard to dental helplines. There is a good selection of information on transport, supermarkets, pubs and restaurants. All round, a useful addition to the bookshelf of any Solent bound cruising craft.” (Royal Cruising Club)
