Estonian Cruising Guide 2006/2007
By: Hillar Kukk & Martsaarso | (2006/2007) | ISBN: 9782910185114 | Imray Stock Code: RB0063 A ring-bound guide to the increasingly popular Estonian Coast.174 pages in colour Estonian sea area stretches as far North as 60 degrees latitude. Even for a seasoned blue-water sailor this is very close to the North Pole and sounds rather extreme. Let’s compare: the average air temperature at 60°N on our planet is -15°C in January; in Estonia it is -6°C, and in July the respective figures are 13°C and 17°C. As you can see this is an area comparable to well known sailing grounds located much farther South. This book was published in order to convince you that, despite the high latitude, Estonian waters can offer at least five months of good sailing conditions ever year, and in the middle of summer a long and refreshing swim in our brackish seawater. Most of all you will find uncrowded, sometimes even very lonely small harbours, uninhabited small islands, but also the temper of harbour towns. The Baltic storm can be as challenging as rounding the famous capes, but at the same time you will still be so close to the friendly and sometimes a little shy coastal Estonians. ISBN: 9782910185114
