World Voyage Planner fills a glaring absence among nautical books by being the only book to be written specifically on the subject of offshore voyage planning. It is thus a valuable and indispensable companion to Jimmy Cornell's other books as it enables the reader to plan, undertake and accomplish a voyage from the earliest stage of conception to its successful completion.
