Book Description
The Atlantic Crossing Guide has established itself as the standard reference for any sailor planning an Atlantic passage within an area bounded by Scotland, South Africa, Grenada, and Newfoundland. It is packed with advice on choosing and equipping a suitable boat, route planning, navigation, safety, and port details. This third edition reflects the continuing development of cruising yachts and their gear, as well as the many changes in shoreside facilities. The section on passages and landfalls has been expanded and is illustrated with many new charts. And, for the first time, the guide covers South Atlantic routes, harbors, and anchorages.

Some new viewpoints and useful information. Doing the laundry in a trash can enroute? You betcha! Hints for freebie overnights and how to deal with medical issues. I found this book very informative, and it covers many aspects of RV travel.

90% of what's in this book can be obtained from any of the various first timer websites.
If you never owned a vehicle, went camping (of any form), made or lived on a budget, had to figure out how to get health care while on vacation, cleaned out your closets or bathroom, then you may find this book of use.
So much of the material in this book is very common sense stuff. Out of the 189 pages I did find six sentences that were informative. Unfortunately none of the comments went into details. I had to look elsewhere for details on the comments.
I'd suggest one of the inexpensive used copies if you feel you really need this book.

I bought several books on full-timing in an RV - and this was the least helpful. While they touch on many topics, none are explored in depth - I learned nothing new from this book. In fact, I felt they kept telling me things that are simply commom sense. For example, in their section about waste water, they don't tell you how to deal w/ frozen waste lines - but they do advise you not flush disposable diapers! This book was a disappointment - and will be returned.

As a family contemplating full-time RVing, this was a great first RVing book. It covers everything from what to do with your possessions, equipping your RV, traveling with pets, mini-hobbies, maintaining your RV and so much more! It was an easy read packed full of great advice. You will need a highlighter to keep track of important information. This book will definately go with us on our journey.
