Offshore Sailing – Bill Seifert with Daniel Spurr
Sailing the Basics, the book that launched thousands – Dave Franzel
The Seaworthy Offshore Sailboat – John Vigor
Coastal and Offshore Navigation – Tom Cunliffe
Twenty Affordable Sailboats to take you Anywhere – Gregg Nestor
Your First Sailboat – Daniel Spurr
Emergency Navigation – David Burch
Why didn’t I think of that – John and Susan Roberts
The Essentials of Living aboard a Boat – Mark Nicholas

The Race – Tim Zimmermann
Galley Book – by Good Old Boat Magazine

We also subscribed to Good Old Boat magazine and we are members of Seven Seas Cruising Association.

We’ve subscribed to the www.waterwayguide.com newsletter since there is a good chance we’ll navigate the Intracoastal waterway.

We have also downloaded videos from www.thesailingchannel.tv

And of course searching for sailing videos on youtube has provided us with many hours of entertainment.
