50 Great Inland Cruising Routes in the Netherlands: A guide to 50 great cruises on the rivers and canals of the Netherlands, with details of locks, br

This guide, which by this its sixth edition has already been hailed as one of the most thorough and up to date guides to inland waterways cruising in the Netherlands, provides detailed information on over 50 cruising routes in the country's 12 different provinces. Aimed at motor yachts cruising the 3,500kms of Dutch waterways that offer at least 4.0 metres air draft, the guide includes step-by-step navigation details for each route; bridge and lock opening procedures and times; descriptions of moorings and facilities; useful sources of information on every aspect of Netherlands cruising; a glossary of important Dutch terms, and tips offering unique insights into particular locations. It is the first book to provide this level of detail and to be written to supplement the national Nautical Maps (Waterkaarten) app and charts. It even corrects numerous errors to be found in this and other apps and published guides. This latest edition also includes a full index. The guide is written by Andy Mulholland and Machiel Lambooij, members of the Cruising Association's European Inland Waterways Section (EIWS), who have cruised virtually every waterway in the Netherlands over the past decade, and edited by fellow EIWS member Gordon Knight. It is updated annually via reports from CA members actively cruising the inland waterways (several hundred of which are submitted each year) and includes a 15 per cent discount offer on first year's CA membership to purchasers applying online during the year. Members can download the free digital edition of this guide (and of 24 further inland waterways guides) as well as the Cruising Association's proprietary CAptain's Mate app, which enables them to access the most up-to-date information on routes and mooring locations.
