Cruising Dingle to Cork

Post by temptressofdown »

We're planning a Southern Irish cruise in the summer - does anyone know of any books that have been written about past cruises to this area?

you've had a look at our log of our trip round Ireland in 2004?

There's some useful links there as well

If I'd known that I was going to sail round Ireland......

...... I'd have read (and carried a copy of) Nick's Circumnavigation account (above).

I'd also have paid more more attention to Kevin Begley's excellent site at http://www.begleys.com/weather.htm .

If you get a chance, have a look at the Irish Crusing Club's Sailing Directions for the West and South coasts just for Bill King's eccentric introduction...... The pilotage advice is pretty good too.
