A practical guide providing advice on planning and preparations for sailing around the beautiful UK coastline. The second edition includes unmissable places en route.
"The new circumnavigation bible" - Geoff Holt (the first disabled sailor to sail around Britain singlehandedly)


A circumnavigation of the UK and Ireland is the perfect ‘doorstep' challenge for sailors and motorboaters looking for an extended cruise which doesn't take them too far from family and responsibilities and allows them to keep in touch. It doesn't require extended time off work, or linguistic ability if things go wrong - and the coastline is beautiful!


This book is a practical guide and Sam gives advice on planning and preparation: when to leave, whether to go clockwise or anti, what charts are needed, how much it is likely to cost, possible routes (via canals or ‘the long way'), what stores and equipment are needed, likely pitfalls en route, and what types of running maintenance might be required. For the second edition she has added a '10 of the best' section detailing 'unmissable' places in a range of categories from remote bays and beautiful rivers to historic locations and anchorages.


UK and Ireland Circumnavigator's Guide is perfect for all those sailors and motorboaters planning as well as dreaming of one day circumnavigating Britain's beautiful islands.

Starting in her home built mirror dinghy on the Broads, she then sailed with the Ocean Youth Club and by the age of 20 had gained her RYA Yachtmaster. Sam has sailed to the Azores and back, cruised around the Canary Islands and the Baltic several times, and in the summer of 2006 sailed around Britain.
