Imray Irish Sea Pilot, Second Edition

About

The Irish Sea Pilot, Second Edition is authored by David Rainsbury.  The Irish Sea is a huge, almost landlocked sea with a wide range of wild life, challenges and coastlines.  Tides above five knots are commonplace and yet there are calm, sheltered waters for relaxed wandering. 

This well established pilot covers both sides of the Irish Sea from Milford Haven to Portpatrick, and Rathlin Island to Carnsore Point.  The sailing directions, descriptions and harbour plans have been updated for this second edition, and cover all of the places that provide shelter.  New photographs have been added throughout. The text records all changes as well as including a new section on wind farms. 

The start of each chapter includes useful coasting notes which deal with some of the more difficult passages and tidal gateways. The harbour text is then organised so that essential information regarding accessibility, tides and shelter proceeds the pilotage notes, which are supported by clear full colour plans.

Updates are published on the Irish Sea Pilot website.
