(Yachting Monthly, February 2009) "...very much a 'cruising companion', with patches of history, anecdote, quotation and detail of shoreside facilities...well illustrated..." (Sailing Today, March 2009) 'For those who prefer an interesting read to a technical guide, East Coast Rivers is full of good local Knowledge.' (Yachting Monthly, December 2010). "The old favourite for this area and has been in publication since 1956. Years of experience shine through in the well-thought out use of photographs and chartlets." (Classic Boat, Aug 2015).
