What is The Voyager's Handbook : the Essential Guide to Blue Water Cruising about?

<p>Here's how to see the world from your boat. More and more people are taking off on their cruising boats for a few months or even a year. After they've tasted the cruising life, prepared and equipped their boats, and developed some experience, many cruisers begin to dream of voyaging farther—maybe even an around-the-world voyage.</p> <p><i>The Voyager's Handbook</i> offers specific information for cruisers considering such a vast undertaking. An experienced circumnavigator, author Beth Leonard shows cruisers how to prepare their boat and themselves. She offers complete, up-to-date information on the latest gear and techniques and detaile, hard-earned advice from dozens of experienced sailors, about boats, crew, and costs as well as crucial but easily overlooked aspects of long-distance passagemaking such as health, safety, weather, provisions, fresh water, and foreign port protocol.</p> <p>With a balanced, down-to-earth approach, <i>The Voyager's Handbook</i> tells it like it is, for any cruiser considering that voyage of a lifetime.</p>
