Hi -
I have some extra copies of sailing books:

The Voyager's Handbook - Beth Leonard.
Hardback in great condition except for a bunch of yellow highlighting. This book is awesome -- my personal favorite of the "overview of the cruising life" genre. Beth and Evans are two of the most accomplished cruisers out there and this book conveys a ton of useful information without being overly opinionated or getting lost in tangents like so many other do.
Cover price $35.
Asking $10 (plus shipping)

North to the Night (a year in the artic ice). Alvah Simon.
Hardback in Excellent condition.
This is a one of a kind story about a one of a kind adventure - sailing into the arctic ice pack and staying the winter. I read it 7-8 years ago and certain scenes remain clear in my memory. Definitely worth the read.
Cover price $24
Asking $7 (plus shipping)

Chasing the Long Rainbow. Hal Roth.
Hardback in great condition (dust cover is a little creased at the edges)
Roth is one of the iconic cruisers of the past generation. This is one of his many great books. Roth's account of the singlehanded BOC Challenge is classic and full of great stories and greater insight. It was a good read years ago, before I'd done any long distance sailing, and as I page through it now it is even more poignant.
Asking $8 (plus shipping)

Please email me through CF.
THANKS!
