Cruising the Secret Coast: Unexplored Anchorages on British Columbia’s Inside Passage, by Jennifer and James Hamilton, published by Weatherly Press, 2008, (257 pp., PB, $44.95). In Cruising the Secret Coast, the authors offer readers a wealth of how-to information on remote destination cruising in B.C. Then they take us to their favourite cruising areas on the South Coast, the Mid-Coast inlets and the islands around Queen Charlotte Sound.

Readers of Pacific Yachting will already be familiar with the regular cruising features written and photographed by Jennifer and James Hamilton. While they sometimes write about popular cruising areas, they’re also the ones who take us to the very outermost coastal destinations and who thrive on exploring the places where few cruisers venture and where wilderness is truly wilderness—and they tell us exactly how to get there. While many of us may never venture that far, their stories are the stuff of dreams!

In Cruising the Secret Coast, they provide the reader with a wealth of information on remote destination cruising. Then they take us to their favourite cruising areas on the South Coast, the Mid-Coast inlets and the islands around Queen Charlotte Sound. This is not meant to be a definitive guide to the coast, but simply a selection of the author’s authors’ favourites with a great deal of in-depth coverage, photos and maps for the places they do write about. If cruising anywhere on the mid-coast—don’t leave home without this one. It is published as a companion to the popular Waggoner Cruising Guide and is absolutely up- to- date, accurate and invaluable.
