Cruising West France out now

A sailing companion to inspire and inform your foray down the Biscay coast of France


29th November 2022, By Imray

West France is, in author Peter Cumberlidge's words, a glorious coastline of timeless cruising pleasures. 

This sailing companion will take you along its rocky coastlines and golden beaches, and up its many estuaries and rivers, enriching your journey from port to port with the history, sights and gastronomic delights of the region.  It is richly illustrated with photographs which emphasise the picturesque nature of this most popular cruising ground. 

Peter Cumberlidge was a well known writer and photographer who cruising widely under sail and power.  He sadly died in 2019, and this book is his final work.  The book was bought to publication by his wife, Jane Cumberlidge, who cruised widely with him aboard Stormalong, their 1936 gaff cutter.
