Inland Waterways of the Netherlands (Busby Louise)(Paperback)

With 6000km of navigable waterways, the Netherlands offers one of the most extensive cruising guides to the Netherlands. The guide is a comprehensive user''s guide to the whole network, covering all the mast-up routes and excluding only those waterways which offer less than 3.5m bridge height. Navigational details are provided for each waterway; comprising dimensions and obstacles to be expected; included service arrangements for bridges and locks. This is followed by details of over 300 stopping places across all 12 provinces; some of which are large or popular harbours, and others which are well off the beaten track. Comments on significant features are expanded for nearly 100 ''principal'' venues where more details on things to do and see are provided, as well as information on practical facilities ashore and the authors'' restaurant tips. The guide is designed to be of interest to all crew members, not just the skipper or navigator, to establish not only how to approach a place but also what to do or see, and whether it will be of interest on arrival. Easy to browse, the book''s illustrationshave been selected to give a flavour of this water-loving country as well as to prepare the visiting yachtsman, whether under power or sail.
