Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)While the subject matter is excellent, the authours opinion is too prevalent.
JD Cardwell considers all sailboats under 22' as "not really cruisers". There are many on the water that would disagree. While a bigger trailerable may be more comfortable, it's also harder to tow, and more expensive.
The authour needlessly runs the risk of pushing the dream beyond the scope of those with limited resources.
This book may be considered valuable by those with or considering boats between 22 to 26 feet, but probably not to others.
Lastly, the authour obviously places more importance on creature comfort than seaworthiness, O.K. for the marina crowd, but offensive to the true cruising sailor.
