Description

Since it was first published, Sell Up and Sail has become the bible for those cruising as a way of life, whether short or long term. It asks all the right questions, and provides the answers from first-hand experience. Whether choosing a boat, deciding what to take and what to leave behind, avoiding mistakes and pitfalls, preventing ill health afloat, or provisioning in far flung places, this book will show how to get it right before you go and ensure your chosen life is as relaxed, enjoyable and stress-free as possible. This fifth edition has been updated and revised to include far-reaching changes in navigation, electronics and communications as well as bureaucracy and other recent developments that may affect the long term cruising sailor's life afloat.
