| Here, at last, is the definitive cruising guide to the Bay of Fundy and the St. John River. For almost two decades, Nicholas Tracy has sailed this fabled waterway in his 22-foot sloop Harfang, taking idiosyncratic notes on the Bay. The result is a comprehensive, yet entertaining, guide of unsurpassed completeness, accuracy and accessibility. From the dramatic cliffs of Grand Manan to the pastoral shores of the St. John River, from the tidal rivers of the Annapolis Basin to the rugged southwestern shore of Nova Scotia, Nicholas Tracy covers the cruising waters of the Bay in more detail than has ever been done before. Included in the book are all the harbouts and passages, from the Lubec Channel and the infamous Reversing Falls to the shores of Cape Sable. Combining historical research with personal experience and wisdom gleaned from fishermen and sailors who have spent a lifetime on the Bay, Nicholas Tracy has written an indispensable guide to the Bay of Fundy. Fully illustrated with headland drawings and tidal charts, this Cruising Guide also includes navigational information, notes on customs regulations, anchorages, sources of fuel and provisions, and insightful observations about life ashore and the phenomena of the Bay. |
