French Almanac - even better this year

[Robin]

Bought the Bloc Marine 'Votre Livre De Bord' whilst in Cherbourg last weekend and it is even better value. This years has added full colour full page coastal charts pretty well from Belgium to Spain in addition to all the harbour plans, harbour information (much of it in English too) even for the UK Scillies to Dover. As usual all the tide info is there for many minor ports also as are tide charts, not to mention the log book with English as well as French headings. All this costs just 21 Euros.

We buy this every year and it just gets better and better, excellent value in my book, the harbour info (even gives the marina fees) beats most (UK) pilot books too as for one thing it is reprinted yearly up to date.

No connection, just happy user.

Do you buy it from the UK? If so, whereabouts please?

I agree, bought one myself in C'bourg last weekend, most impressive. Even gives secondary port tides for Paimpol!

It seems there are 2 versions, Atlantique and Mediteranee.

Can anyone say if the Atlantique version covers Brittany, or the UK South Coast?

Yes, the Atlantique version covers Brittany and the UK South Coast - Scillies to Ramsgate
