Bloc Marine French Harbours, in English now available

[Bandit]

Actually Titled " Bloc Marine French Harbours" your Alamanac and Cruising Guide, Coastlines of France, English Channel, North Sea, Atlantic Ocean, Mediteranean Sea


We recieved a small allocation of Bloc Marine French Harbours today and I have had a quick look at it.

Its in English only, It covers only the French coastal areas from Dunkirk to Hendaye (Plus only non French area being Channel Islands)

Then the Mediteranean ports Banyuls sur Mer to Menton plus Corsica.

Cover price is 45 Euros.

It has no tides or tidetables in it so you would need the french version for that .

It is a harbour and coastal guide it is not an annual almanac, in fact it has no year printed on it.

For those of you outside of Guernsey we will not send it by post so buy it from your local chandlery or Amazon , Amazon do not list it yet.

The old Bloc Marine Atlantique in French and English was excellent especially for up to date tides and other up to date information and in my mind was a much easier publication to use and more user friendly than Reeds.

I tend to agree with Lady in Bed above.

By the way Sybarite the link for 4-Oceans does not work is it a maritime book sail website?

They should be at 38€ a pop!
You would need several to cover one BLOC.
